The West Fork of the Trinity river forms two lakes in the Fort Worth area. Eagle Mountain Lake upstream to the Northwest, and Lake Worth, which forms the northern boundary of the Joint Naval Reserve Base (fka Carswell AFB) and is straddled by the I-820 loop. I had an unexpected day in town plus a loaner canoe, and was determined to experience the "urban Trinity." I chose the reach of river between paddling.net
The Trinity River is a 550 mile (885 km)-long river that flows entirely within the state of Texas in the United States. It rises in extreme north Texas, just a few miles south of the Red River. Its headwaters are separated from the Red River basin by the high bluffs on the south side of the Red River. The Trinity has four forks: the Clear Fork, the Elm Fork, the West Fork, and the East Fork, each anglerweb.com
Fort Worth was the last stop until Kansas for cattle drives heading north. As a result, a lively outpost grew up there around a military settlement established on the Trinity River. Today old stockyards built to handle this traffic are preserved as a national historic district. Fort Worth has preserved this western heritage, but has an extraordinary cultural district, home to world-class museums, trails.com
From the Trail Website (www.texasoutside.com): In Fort Worth, runners log their miles on the scenic, greenbelted Trinity River Trails, a 35-mile network of paved and natural surface trails, many of which meander through a half dozen of Fort Worth's many parks. traillink.com
