It's (almost) Autumn, which means it's NIGHT HIKE SEASON! Join Ranger Decoda Muller on a Blacklight Hike. We will be on the lookout for certain insects, some mycorrhizae, and whatever else we can find that glows in light! The hike will be approximately one hour. We encourage that you bring an extra flashlight or blacklight and require that you wear long pants and closed-toe shoes for the hike. Kids 8 and under are free.
