Dropped by little Square Lake Park on a cloudy Superbowl Sunday morning. Winter hours! Only open Saturdays and Sundays, dawn to dusk.
Road: paved
Parking lot: large and completely empty
Bathroom: clean and stocked with two half-full industrial-type rolls of TP, plus hand sanitizer.
Trail: obstacle-free, on the short stretch I explored (to the back end of the lake, where the trail begins to turn away from it). The description mentioned the trail doesn’t go around the lake, and I was in the midst of a longer walk around the neighborhood, so I turned back there.
Views: two beaver dens; two beaver families sharing real estate, or one wealthy beaver family with a vacation home? Also some ducks and geese, the small lake looking pretty in the mist. There was a “swim at your own risk” sign; the water looked a bit shallow and muddy.
People: no one at all!
