Description
UPDATE, 5/22, 4:30 PM: This event has been postponed from this weekend to Saturday, June 1, with an updated time of 10:00 am-1:00 pm.
After the years rain, it is butterfly and dragonfly season!
Join CA Certified Naturalist John Lynch on this 4-mile guided nature hike, with approximately 300 feet of elevation gain. We'll be looking up rather than down to discover what's flying around, learning a little about creek, pond, and meadow habitats. Our route will explore the Meadow Trail looking for damselflies and summer wildflowers with a quick side trip to the Gray Pine Trail to observe butterfly puddling.
Doubling back on Gray Pine, we will be on the lookout for dragonflies as we climb the rolling Hillside trail to another short over-and-back to the "Butterfly Crossing" at Rattlesnake Creek.
Meet at the White Barn parking area. Wear comfortable clothing, appropriate footwear for rocky/slippery trails, and sun protection. Bring at least a quart of water, and if you desire, a snack, butterfly or wildflower guides, or a camera. Rain cancels. Parking fees apply.
