Nice wee park actually. A bit light on the equipment but then again, rugged nature seemed to be the predominant theme at this wee park. Very well maintained and a great wee spot, lightly sheltered on a windy day :)

Great wood based playground with swings, climbing poles, and an attached pump track that circles the larger park. No slide or trash cans that I could see.
