In honor of Earth Day, a ranger will be leading a wildlife observation hike. There is plenty to see in nature when you're in the company of a trained eye.

This hike will begin at the Discovery Center, continue to the YCC trail, and then conclude at the end of the Red Fox Trail. The Red Fox Trail is our newest trail and is mostly canopied and in the shade of tall trees. Please wear comfortable walking/hiking shoes, feel free to bring binoculars, and of course be sure to bring water.
