About this Event
Learn the natural and cultural history of this preserve on an intermediate-level mountain bike ride with a 2,000-foot elevation gain led by Docent Naturalists Linda Wegner and Veronica Chouinard. Riders must have experience with single-track trails, fire roads, and climbing hills. Some of the trails you’ll explore include Toyon, Seven Springs Loop Trail, and Hayfield. The ride leaves promptly. Bring ample drinking water, power snacks, and clothing layers as many areas are exposed to direct sun. (Note: Arrive early to find parking; additional parking may be available on Prospect Road.) Reservations are required and will be accepted on or after August 17 at 12:00 p.m. (Noon) and close August 30 at 2:00 p.m.
