Bring sun protection
The playground and most of the park have virtually no shade trees, making midday visits uncomfortable.
Watch for snakes
Rattlesnakes have been spotted on the grounds, particularly in fenced-off areas marked with caution signs.
Arrive early on weekends
The park gets crowded on Sunday afternoons, and you'll have better access to limited parking and shaded picnic areas.
