I visited Fontenelle Forest for a hike. I drove to the Wetlands parking. This is quite and adventure with lots of hills and washboarded gravel road. I saw an barred owl fly into the branches of a tree on my way but couldn't get a picture. However there was nice parking. I started south on the boardwalk, and then took the pond hike which is relatively short. This trail did go past a dry pond com0leted with a dock. It merged onto the stream trail and this ended at the marsh trail. I crossed over the railroad track at the end of the marsh trail and entered into the Mormon Hollow trail. I went up about 100 yearsd before turning around. I went back the way I came except a small board walk loop.
