My wife is into plants so we chose to do the 2 pm walk with a staff naturalist. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the flowers, trees, wildlife and geology. The path itself is suitable for all ages and winds through meadows, skirts a bog, and tall trees. It was bright sunny day so the wildlife was bedded down but... More

The wildflowers were beautiful. They even give you a laminated sheet to take with you on the trails to identify the flowers. We had a picnic at the picnic table, surrounded by beautiful lupine, dwarf cottonwood, wild geraniums and much more. Very relaxing.

This was a real find. The trails are well marked and there is a good nature guide to al let you know about the p,ants. We even saw a porcupine.
