Pretty good. I was told about the great many animals and plants and mostly animals around the area. There are many different birds around the many ponds, lakes, and reservoirs. The area is surrounded by mountains, most notably the diablos to the east. It's green for the most part in the valley area between Winters ridge and the diablos because the artesian springs that feed the many bodies of water. The artesian springs are supplied with lots of water from the surrounding mountains, like the diablos. There are pictoglifs and old settlement remains from the natives that lived at the shores of ancient lakes that covered the now marsh lands. There are wild horses that come from east of the diablos that sometimes, when the diablos are dry, come to drink from artesian springs. There are many trails and roads that lead to the diablos that you can take a vehicle like a side-by-side or quads, a trip over the summer lake area to the diablos is best done in a party with multiple vehicles. I heard quite a lot about summer lake over my two day trip there, and even more about the diablos.
