General Information about the Lagoon Valley Hike:
Ted Swiecki will talk about the history and ecology of the area. We will start at 10 a.m. at the trailhead at the end of Butcher and should be done by noon. There are several unique species in this area that Ted will be showing us.
Parts of the walk will be moderate in difficulty and will include uphill on dirt trails, so good hiking shoes are recommended. There is some poison oak along trails to be aware of and we will have to watch for ticks.

- Poison oak is along some of the trails and watch for ticks.
- Bring water and snacks if necessary since it will not be provided.
