The turtle in the picture had already crossed the road by the time I walked back from parking. The Huron river is a very popular spot for turtles and nesting, and we often see turtles relaxing from a distance when kayaking. They are rather skittish and jump into the river as soon as possible.

** Huron River Drive is twisty and it is unsafe to park along the side of the road. If you drive ahead about a half mile there is a lot ***
