Forager's Nature Walk
A guided walk along Coyote trail, learning to identify the various edible wild plants in this region. We will identify, but not gather.
About this Event
Walk with Master Naturalist Jacob, and open your eyes to the amazing repertoire of foods growing right here in the Colorado mountains. This will be a short, 1.5 hr easy hike, with stops to look at various plants along the trail. As actually taking plants from the park is not legal, we will be focusing on learning to spot and identify the vaious plants growing here.
We will be meeting at Bootleg Bottom Picnic Area , and hiking up along the Coyote trail for a ways, but we will not be going the full length of the trail. This trail includes some incline and is shaded.
Please bring weather appropriate clothing (it will likely be hot, and may rain), a notebook if you like, and a curiosity for the natural world!
A park pass is required for this event. If you do not have one, please plan to purchase one prior to the event start.
