Run with a Planner

  Bobcat Ridge Natural Area

Stewardship Behind the Scenery

When: April 26th, 8:30 - 10:00 a.m. Where: Bobcat Ridge Natural Area. Activity Description: Natural Areas is updating the Montane Zone and Planners want to hear your thoughts! Ever wonder what planners look at when they are developing ways to protect sensitive natural resources and enhance visitor experiences? Join a planner on a fun trail run to learn more about the elements that are taken into consideration and discuss the future impacts and opportunities that will be addressed in the Natural Areas Montane Zone Update. This is a no-drop run and all paces are welcome. We will stop halfway (2 miles), wait for everyone to gather, chat a little, then run the other 2 miles. There is a bathroom at the trailhead and another mid-way through the run. Please note that this is a TRAIL RUN, rather than a hike. Hikes with a planner at Bobcat Ridge are scheduled for May 19hth and June 18th. Please sign up on Engage if you plan to attend either of these events! Accessibility: 4-mile run along the Valley Loop Trail. What to bring: Get ready to run! Dress appropriately for the weather, bring plenty of water, and wear sturdy shoes.
