2.5 - 3 mile long drainage canal that was originally started in 1880 and continues to expand with the town. Tons of interesting feeder pipes, lots of bridges overhead with cool graffiti, TONS of bum camps under the bridges but they're all friendly. Great place for a lazy day hike.

This drainage canal has grown with Denton as it has expanded, and now crosses a good 2.5 - 3 mile stretch. Some areas date as far back as 1880, with original stonework, others are as new as 2007. It still functions full time as a drainage canal, so use all precautions that you would in an enclosed drain.
