13feb2023 ~14:10, after i've completed the Self-Registration for Campsite_#132 at Mountain Lake Campground, Moran State Park, i went for a ramble - "Lollipop" Loop ; Campsite_#132 > 1 > 2 > Mount Pickett > 3 > 1 > Campsite_#132.
The Trails were in good condition and seemed well-maintained. My ramble was uneventful but for the ~15+ minutes of hail when i was at/around Mount Pickett.
Encountered a Senior couple at (2) - they were coming Back/Down after going to the Viewpoint (shown in the Map) to see the Cypress trees there (i didn't go to the Viewpoint - so i don't know about the Cypress trees). And on my way Down/Back, at (3) a Trail-runner came Down from behind me. Except for a few other people that i saw at the Parking Lot beside Mountain Lake, these 3 were the only people that i encountered when i was on the Trails until the next morning (TUE 14feb2023) - yes, i was the only person camping at Mountain Lake Campground. So much peace and quiet .. lots of sweet solitude for so many hours 👍😊
By the way, the Mountain Lake Campground and toilets were very clean.. many thanks to the Moran S.P. for their hard work in upkeeping the Trails and Facilities 👍
Happy Trails Everyone 😃
