Date of hike: March 23, 2024
Meeting time: 9:00am
Join Ed Robb and Stephanie Lenkey Saturday, March 23, for an easy to moderate walk at Dakota Ridge/Dinosaur Park. We’ll walk about 2-3 miles, with 240' elevation, on a paved road from the gate, viewing dinosaur tracks and other geologic features along the way, to the gate on the Red Rocks side of the hill, then return. The road is restricted to the occasional shuttle from the Dinosaur Ridge Learning Center, bikes, and walkers. There are great views of the valley and toward Red Rocks.
