We meet at Hi-View Lookout on Cypress Bowl Road at 10:00 AM and car-pool to the Conservancy. Tours take approximately 3 hours and you should bring a lunch to enjoy in the Conservancy.
The tour moves at a slow pace and much of the walking is off-trail including steep terrain, fallen trees and underbrush. Sturdy footwear, long pants and a long-sleeve shirt (for brush and bugs) are recommended. Please bring water, something to eat, insect repellent and optionally a hiking pole for stability. A release of liability will be provided and must be signed before the tour.
Unfortunately, children under the age of 10 and dogs cannot be accommodated. Tours may be rescheduled due to unfavourable weather.
