I have seen snakes on the trail. I don't know how often you encounter them.
I believe the park is officially open until 9pm, so go for it. Be safe.
There is lighting in the park and new ones were recently added. Go for it.
It's open but I don't know if I'd recommend it.
I have seen people after 10pm. It is actually safe!!!
