Leg 1 - Burkett park > WS to LL Connector > Roller  Coaster > West Potts Creek > Turkey Creek > 5 Points Junction    4.0 miles

Leg 2 -  5 Points Junction > Flintstone (S) > Playground > Bell's Point > Playground (S)> Potts Creek (ENE) > Burkett Trail > Burkett Park      3.5 miles

Temp started at 33, ended at 44.  Clear and sunny w/5-10mph NNE winds.

Easy hike along dry and easy to traverse trails.  Not many birds or animals out while hiking due to the cold.  All trails were easily passable.  There is still water in a few areas but lack of rainfall is hurting the environment.  A few deer and a small group of javelinas were spotted as I drove out of the park.
