Colorado Bend Front Gate.   You've finally arrived.

Most park visitors go to the river and fish but there is much more to see and do on the park.

The park offers a tour of Gorman Falls that begins at the conference center.  Formally the headquarters for the Gorman falls fishing camp.

Gorman falls as seen in November 1987.

The falls is created from travertine evaporating from the water.

The water travels down from the falls through a series of small cascades and pools.

The water finally drains into the scenic Colorado River.

This wishing well located on a small island in Gorman Creek is one of the first thing visitors arriving at the conference center.

The majority of Gorman Creek is dry most of the year.  This part (behind the conference center) is fed by Gorman Spring year round.

This foot bridge across Gorman Creek  provides access to the conference center from the parking area.

The trail head to a hiking an birding trail going upstream toward Gorman Spring is a monument to Pat Copeland.

The trailhead plaque dedicates the walking trail to Pat Copeland - a great lady, a friend of the park and well known Texas Caver who unfortunately is no longer with us.

The trail (looking downstream) goes beside Gorman Creek.

A bird nest off the side of the hiking trail.

One egg remained in the nest after the hatching season.
