Event description:
A new form of communicating with nature without the communication! A silent hike for the nature lovers who desire to journal, photograph, or meditate along the trail. Our guides will lead through the trail but not interpret (describe) the usual talking points. After the starting point and presenting the safety and preserve features, you will be lead to resting points that allow you to enjoy the peace of scenic overviews, shady switch-back trails, and complete the hike at a glade. Bring a LIGHT folding chair that is easy and fast to carry, water and a snack, your journal/camera/book, and a sense of repose. Please respect the theme of quiet observation during this hike. For ages 12 and up.
