Beautiful area. Found this odd colored tree . It was a blueish green. I've never seen a natural tree this color

The Rock Creek Nature Study Area is a great hidden loop trail in the forest. There is a creek which runs though the area with tall trees and lush scenery.

There was no one out here, just us. So that was actually really nice. And there was a small picnic area too. Overall the trail was an easy walk (less than a mile). However, it is in desperate need of maintenance, and the scenery was mostly dead trees. Make sure to follow posted signs to find your way there - Google maps gives incorrect directions. If you're nearby, go ahead and check it out. Otherwise, it's not really worth going out of your way for.

Is the trail smooth enough for a stroller?

Yes most of the trail is accessible. Depending on the time of year and time of day you go, the trail can have quite a few bugs.

Where to park?

There are probably 6 to 8 parking spaces at the beginning of the trail as well as a pit toilet. No water available at the site
