The trail is pretty nice; it's paved the whole way from start to finish, and has a few benches along the way. If you're new to hiking, you can take the hill a little slow, and you'll be fine. The woods are very pretty, and it leads to a pleasant bridge. Only thing I'd caution is that the area's pretty rife with devil's club, so don't touch any of that. Otherwise, there's free parking right by the trailhead, and the whole thing is just a touch over 2 miles round trip. Overall a very pleasant hike.

A 1st-time at any indoor range, ever. Normally I avoid other shooters, but this was a friendly bunch. Professional too. I observed all levels of shooters on the line from beginner to advanced, young to old, and everything in between. I was in and out in under an hour and fired over 150 rounds within that time. The price was very reasonable for my time there. I brought my own targets, but they have targets for sale. There is tape in every booth to secure your target to the target backer. The air quality inside the building was very good. I felt safe on the firing line and nobody interrupted my shooting. I saw they had many guns for rent to try out if you wanted that. Parking was crowded and tight, so leave large vehicles at home.
