Signature Bluffs Natural Area is a vast area of natural river habitat with a large pond, cottonwood stands, cattails and meadows. You can take canoes and kayaks out on the pond or go fishing (a fishing license is required). There are also some dirt trails to get back into the more remote areas. This is an excellent place for bird watching and to see other wildlife as well.
