Natural History - Seniors
Discover the resilience of nature on a 2-mile hike along Heil Valley Ranch’s Lichen Loop, where wildflowers bloom in the wake of wildfire. We’ll explore their beauty, ecological role, and cultural history at a relaxed pace. The trail includes moderate inclines and rocky areas and may have mud or ice patches; hiking poles and traction are recommended. Participation is flexible; join as much of the walk as you’re comfortable with or hang back at the shelter.

Molly R - Volunteer Naturalist
My Dad instilled the love of nature in me since I was born. He would quiz us on geology, plants and animals as we went on road trips to National Parks and camping by lakes in Washington state. I carried those experiences into my adult life with my kids and when I retired I became more involved in citizen science and advocating for natural areas and completed the Oregon Master Naturalist program. When I moved to Colorado a few years ago BCOS was a natural fit for those endeavors.
