On this day after Thanksgiving, explore the five senses with Docent Naturalists Bobbie Riedel, Katie Wilson, and Catherine Xun. You’ll hike the Lost Trail listening for bird song, feeling the moisture of the woodlands, smelling the fragrance of native plants, and soaking in the views. This is a moderately-paced, out-and-back hike. Come ready to explore the sensory experience of the natural world.

You'll see parking and a bathroom on the east side of the road and a large pull-out area (where it is okay to park) on the west side.
