How many banana slugs will you find? Join Docent Naturalists Roberta and Jaime Cavazos and Melissa Hero on a family-friendly hike along Purisima Creek Trail and discover some amazing facts about banana slugs and more along the trail. You'll stop for a snack break along the creek and see if you can find other redwood forest "friends" living nearby. At the conclusion of the outing you'll create a "Banana Slug" to take home.
