Natural Features
This nature reserve features a lazy, meandering river that
neatly cuts into its own deltaic sands, deposited over many
centuries. The river has a good example of a bird's-foot delta
-- a fan of sediments at a river's mouth dissected by tributaries,
giving the impression of a webbed bird's foot.
Park Facilities and Activities
There are no visitor facilities. The well-forested terrain
makes the area a good spot for nature viewing.
