Needs signage and a map

I am pretty sure I got this trail since I began at Balfour Riverwalk Park, crossed the bridge, went down the stairs, and walked all the little dirt paths by the river I could find, past the community garden and all the way to the stone waterfall in the woods. However, it all seemed like little dirt paths alongside the road. There were no markers or indication that it was an actually trail except for a few signs that were illegible and looked like they were put up decades ago and never maintained. Not sure why this is a National Recreation Trail.
