We love to hike Shaw! We start or end with a light lunch at the picnic area and then head out whichever trails we decide to explore that day...but always including the gravel bar and a sit by the river. We do between 2 and 3 hours of hiking and rarely see another person if we go on a weekday. Very peaceful and great exercise. Beautiful views and lovely places to enjoy wildflowers or fauna.
