River Place Nature Trail in Austin, Texas: Training hike for Houston flatlanders.

The six of us are going to hike The Narrows, Angels Landing and Zion Via Ferrata over four days at the end of September 2021. We are from Houston. Saying it is flat is an understatement. We drove 3 hours to hike River Place Nature Trail twice as a training hike. It was a bit brutal in July, but we kicked butt! We started at the bottom "River Place Nature Trail" trailhead here: https://goo.gl/maps/uYUxwhrqJwqV6faJ8 If you want to start at the top, the "Canyon Trail" Trailhead is here: https://goo.gl/maps/TVUbA6zVEFJo5RoD8 I recorded our two attempts in two separate AllTrails recordings. The trailhead map says that there is 1700' elevation change. My AllTrails recording said it was 900'. I don't know who is right. My AllTrails recordings are here: https://www.alltrails.com/explore/rec... and here: https://www.alltrails.com/explore/rec... The official website for the River Place trails is here: http://www.riverplacelimiteddistrict.... Note that it is $10 per person on weekends. We opted to go on a weekday to avoid the crowds and the entry fee.
