Water level is still high BUT if you park in the lot and walk along the bike path east about 30 or so metres there are two or three paths thru the grass into the non-wet forest where there are some def sewcluded spots for fun anyone planning to go there tonight? say around 9 or 10 pm? prob good daytimes too but there are usually a lot of people feeding the geese - so be careful

if you are driving - go along the parkway heading west from downtown and just west of the woodroffe exit on the right side the river side is the parking area if coming from the west - best probably is to go along richmond then north on woodroffe to the parkway then west on the parkway a bit until you hit the parking lot on the right side if any one plans to go there let me know - i live 2 min from there and can always meet you - or if it is really cold we can all come back here to play
