Description

Join naturalists John Bates and Mary Burns for this fun fall hike. The Trapp Hills lay just to the south of the Porcupine Mountains. Their high bluffs, ridge and valley topography, and panoramic views make for beautiful but rugged hiking. Hike length will be about 6 miles over rocky terrain, so hiking stamina and strength are a necessity. We’ve built in plenty of time to stop and talk about the unique ecology of the area and to simply enjoy the views.

Space is limited and registration is required by 10/3/25. Participants should plan to bring a snacks/lunch/water. We will meet at the Discovery Center and ride together in our travel van. Registered participants will be sent an email with more information prior to the hike. $60/Member and $70/Non-Member. Sunday 9:00 am - 5:00 pm.
