Mariposa Park

Mariposa Park in Pasco looks as if the equipment was designed by the same company that did West Chiawana Park’s playground, but it is not as good for toddlers or children with physical disabilities as Chiawana. If you have a bigger kid who loves to climb, this might be a good park for you.

Playground: mainly one big structure with three tall slides, no toddler sized things. Even the first step up to the play equipment was taller than normal, and the hand rail started at the second step.
Swings: two standard swings and one tandem standard swing/baby swing
Surface: rubberized
Musical toys: there was a push-button noise making toy installed but it doesn’t work
Climbing wall: no wall but tons of other different things to climb
Shade: no
Fence: no
Adult seating: yes
Parking: street
Sidewalks: yes
Bathroom: port-a-potty
