George Mitchell Nature Preserve Trail

The George Mitchell Nature Preserve is a new park at the south edge of The Woodlands. Located at 5171 Flintridge, there's a nice walk/bike trail through the preserve, perhaps a mile long.

The trail is suitable only for wide-tired bicycles. It's four to eight feet wide. The surface is mostly wood or pine mulch over clay; the entryway is gravel over clay; a few short stretches are soft sand a few inches deep.

I saw one copperhead sunning along the path edge.

Here's a few pictures from along the trail:

Bedias Lake is about half-way back.

The foliage along the trail is quite dense.

I even took a movie!
