\nDarby Creek. \u00a0Thank you to Park Ranger Suzanne Kelley who writes that “We have a .6 mile accessible loop – the asphalt path, about 8′ wide, goes between Darby Creek and the impoundment (big man-made pond), crosses the impoundment on a boardwalk and comes back to the visitor center or parking lot through the woods on an asphalt path about 6′ wide.\u00a0 Just past the boardwalk is our accessible fishing deck – the asphalt goes up to it.\u00a0 The visitor center is also accessible…<\/span>The rest of the service roads and paths are hard packed dirt, gravel. and wood chip.\u00a0 The terrain in general is flat with minor hills towards the center of the refuge.”<\/span><\/p>\n
