Umatilla gets a nature trail

On March 21, Lake County opened a brand-new county park in Umatilla called North Lake Community Park.  Among its many facilities, which include a big playground, picnic pavilions, volleyball and tennis courts, and a walking trail (1.4 miles) around the perimeter, the park has a 3/4-mile nature trail as well.

I recently stopped in Umatilla looking for a nature trail at a small arboretum on the south side of town, but could find no markers or blazes or even the track of a trail, despite the sign.  This 96-acre park is located at 40730 Roger Giles Road, Umatilla.
