This is a fantastic extension of the park with a wide flat path along the steep cliffside. With oil rigs and ranches as its backdrop, there are plenty of benches to sit, relax, and take in the scenery. Here, you can enjoy the views of the oilfields contrasting with the lush Panorama Vista Preserve next to them, which is used as a wildlife rehabilitation area.
