This event does not require reservations and is free. To join this hike simply show up on time in the correct location to participate.

Hikers will be going up the East Ridge Trail.

The hike will end with a jaunt through the Armstrong Grove before ending at the start next to the Visitor’s Center. Docent Larry will discuss Animal Tracking and Plant Identification as appropriate along the hike.
