Clyburn Ridge Trailhead

When

Oct. 1, 2022. 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

You walk around trees all the time, but have you ever taken a chance to get to know what you're walking past? Trees can shape an entire habitat and make a network under our feet.

With an interpreter, you will learn some of the ways to identify trees and their unique characteristics. After the hike, make a small booklet to hold all the information you can gather about a tree of your choice.
