Docent Naturalists Annette Herz, An Scharlaken, Jan Hintermeister, and Jim McNulty are eager to explore mammals—from mice to men. You'll make several stops along the Bald Mountain and Mt. Umunhum trails to consider the many ways in which our wild mammalian neighbors are interconnected with humans. You’ll also learn about how Midpen biologists are trying to protect the vulnerable species found on the preserves. Bring a lunch. Reservations are required and will be accepted on or after November 24 at 12:00 p.m. (Noon) and close December 6 at 2:00 p.m.
