It was a pleasant but overcast day at Blankets Creek Mountain-Bike Trails, and the forest is not yet in full bloom. Still, it was a nice place to take a 1.375-mile stroll along the Mosquito Flats trail. It’s a mellow, level, unpaved path alongside the creek and through the forest. Cyclists have the right-of-way, but respectful pedestrians are welcome — even if, like me, they brought a cheeseburger and a large basket of french fries to fuel the journey. Mosquito Flats starts at the parking lot and is a beginner-level trail for cyclists. At several points along the way, you can access much longer trails and presumably more challenging terrain.
For today’s woodsy soundtrack, enjoy the retro-psychedelic Secret Enchanted Broccoli Forest by the Babe Rainbow.

A cheeseburger and fries sound great for this walk. I like the fact they have trails appealing to all levels of cyclists.

It’s a cool spot I probably won’t get to re-visit for a while because I am moving to Athens in a couple of days. But it is not the only nature walk of the past week that required emergency burger and fries! As to what prompted these recent excursions, I’ll probably post the backstory after I get settled into my new place. It’s been a fun week!
