Cirby Creek is a year round creek. The cub scouts and dads have installed a wrought iron fence around the grinding stones.
It is now an urban area and the bike, jogging, walking trail is striped blacktop. The trail is popular with dog walkers too.
These grinding rocks were used by a number of women at one time.
