COLORADO RIVER HERITAGE GREENWAY PARK AND TRAILS

THIS NEW RECREATION AREA OPENED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO, AND IT WAS TIME TO TAKE THE SCOOTER AND CHECK IT OUT.

THE SIGNATURE LANDMARK OF THIS NEW PARK IS THE PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE ACROSS HWY 168.

OBVIOUSLY PLANNED AND FUNDED BEFORE THE DAYS OF FISCAL CLIFFS, AND THE ECONOMIC WOES OF NEVADA.  I’M JUST GUESSING, BUT PORK BARREL POLITICS AND HARRY REID COMES TO MIND.

THE TRAIL STARTS AT THE BRIDGE AND GOES A COUPLE OF MILES ALONG THE NEVADA SIDE OF THE COLORADO RIVER.

THE PATH IS WIDE AND PAVED THE WHOLE WAY. LOT’S OF BIKES, STROOLERS, AND DOGS.  THE KIND OF HIKE GRANDMA JEAN WOULD HAVE JUST LOVED.

A PERFECT SCOOTER TRIP, SUNSHINE, AND STEPS ON MY PEDOMETER.
