Event Details
As the days get longer in spring, it allows us a wonderful opportunity to look for wildflowers, butterflies and other bits of nature that we don’t see during the short cold days of winter. Join a park interpreter and wander along the Bear Creek Lake Nature Trail to search out a variety of wildlife and plants. Hike is 1 mile in length. Wear sturdy shoes or boots, bring water and don’t forget your insect repellent. 7:00 p.m. - 1 hour - Bear Creek Lake Nature Trail
