Event Details

Join us at Hidden Lake for a creek crawl, where we comb through the river for small animals and insects to learn about the river's health they indicate. This program is perfect for kids aged seven and up to learn about river ecology as well as to have fun in a creek. A ranger will show them how to safely interact with nature and learn.

Note: Please remain in area for event if bringing children!
