This program is perfect for beginner birders Ages 8 and up. Location: South Eltuck Picnic Area Difficulty: We will spend the beginning of this class at a picnic area.

Expect to walk over rocks and go up a few rock stairs. Bring: Water, snacks, binoculars or monoculars and dress for the weather and trail conditions, including sturdy, closed-toe hiking shoes Program is free with a valid state parks pass (KCW, $10 day pass, or Colorado State Park Annual Pass)
