Stream Team Programs: Guided Hike for Boone County Creek Week

Join us for a guided hike through forest, stream valleys, and grasslands to see and learn firsthand what different aspects of watersheds are like and how they influence stream water quality! We will meet at the Turkey Creek Trailhead at the end of E Deer Park Road (NOT 3500 E Gans Road, the default address for the conservation area!) and depart for a loop hike soon after 6:00. Please anticipate a hike of about 2.0 miles in length with about 150' of elevation gain and loss. Note that hiking can come with challenges not limited to steep, rocky, or muddy terrain; downed trees or overhanging branches; biting insects and arachnids; irritating plants; venomous snakes; and stream crossings. Attendees under the age of 18 must have a sponsoring adult present.
