Today we explore the STUNNING Provin Trails! This property is a beautiful and unique (more on that next hike!) walk through a sandy bottom forest of pines. I do (again) get a bit lost because many trails simply wander through the park with little signs or directions.

Weather: 55° F / 12.8° C, Sunny
Difficulty: 3/5
Length: 1 mile / 1.6 kilometers
Duration: 18 minutes

Welcome back to Creekside Park! This was a soggy walk... Listen carefully when I reach the grassy portions of the trail, you'll hear my socks and shoes getting rather moist. Also, get an inside look at what happens when I miss a sign and walk down the wrong trail! Except for the wet, this was a nice walk, just come back when it is a bit more dry if you plan to hike.

We're at Huff Park in Grand Rapids, Michigan! I've been near this park, but never explored it. The wetlands, boardwalks, brief forest, and open fields are STUNNING! Adding to this easy hike, we're DEER and DUCKS, very near to the trail and content to allow me to quietly stand and observe them. Amazing!
