Deer Creek Reservoir — Attraction in Lexington Township

This is the single worst hiking trail I have ever seen. It may begin in a deceptively nice fashion through some peaceful woods, but after only a mile you're dropped off onto the side of the road where instead of looking at the beautiful scenery (which I firmly believe Stark County has no concept of how to appreciate) you are looking at abandoned furniture and looking out for 18-wheelers barreling down the road.
