Acerca del evento
Rattlesnake Gutter is a spectacular glacial ravine that probably formed when either glacial meltwater or a temporary glacial lake exploited a fracture in the crust that had constrained the flow of water.
This will be more of a moderate hike than a nature walk with some gradual uphill climbs. Plan to cover approximately 2-3 miles in about about 2 hours up through the ravine and then into woods on various loops.
One loop will take us to a view of the Peace Pagoda.
On the way back to the parking area, we will pass through a whimsical garden landscape.
Meet up at 11:00 AM on Saturday October 25th
