Elijah Bristow State Park

I went to Elijah Bristow State Park on Friday on my way down to southern Oregon to visit family.  This park is located about 10 miles east of Eugene and very easy to get to.  It reminded me alot of Champoeg SP, North Santiam SP, Willamette Mission SP, and Tryon Creek SP.  I think there's a trend in state parks that they all have nice level trails that follow a river with a meadow in between.  It was beautiful of course and very easy, but I don't think I would drive the two hours to get there.  Perhaps if I lived in Eugene I would utilize this park often.

The trail is also open for horses and there tended to be quite a mess you had to step around. That made it a little annoying but it was a nice walk.  Not my favorite, but pleasant.
