Join us for a Guided Nature Hike
with Washington Naturalist Marya Nowakowski

Forests are more than just a bunch of trees; they are complex ecosystems that embrace many different organisms including people. Trees are also complex organisms with tiny little communities of birds, bugs, lichens, fungi and mosses that live in and on them. There has been some tree thinning work out in the Glenrose unit that has changed the look and feel of the landscape. Let’s take a look and see what we can find.
Join DHC for this guided hike led by Washington State Naturalist Marya Nowakowski on July 28th, starting at 9:00 am and ending before 12:00 pm from the Glenrose Trailhead. We will hike the Glenrose trail out to the western junction with the Phillips Creek trail and then return, for a hike that is about 2 miles roundtrip. Marya will share about the trees and shrubs, and other organisms in the area and how they form an ecosystem community.
Please no dogs for this hike except for service animals. Please let us know if a service animal is coming.
