Quick Facts

Historical/Interpretive Information/Exhibits

The forest provides a home for many types of animals. While walking on the trail look closely for these homes nests made of materials such as grasses, twigs or leaves, holes in the ground, in trees, or fallen logs. During the summer months many of these homes are hidden by leaves, but in winter, animal homes are easier to see. How many can you find?
