Leg 2 - 5 Points Junction > Flintstone Trail (S) > park road (NE) > park road (SW) > Burkett Trail > Burkett Park 2.1 miles
Temps started at 76, ended at 93. Sunny, some humidy. Light, sporadic 0-5mph SW breeze.
Easy hike along rocky trails. VERY little animal or bird activity on the hike although I stopped on my drive to Burkett Park to let a family of six javelinas cross the road. I also saw a few deer and a few cottontails on the drive in as well. The weather, although warm, was not unpleasant but there was minimal wildlife activity. On a sad note, when I reached 5 Points Junction, I saw a fairly large dog (perhaps a golden lab) about 50 yards away. Although I made no moves toward him, he saw me, spooked himself and took off running in the opposite direction. I'm sure he was lost but there was nothing I could do except report him to the park.
