Exploring is super fun but also requires skill. Come and learn how to use navigation techniques on the trail such as maps, compasses, and nature itself to guide the way. Create your own map of the trail to take home!
Take some time to explore some of the local rocks. They tell us so much about the land and who was here before us. Have some fun using a magnifying glass to explore and maybe see some fossils!
