Event details

After spring rains, the woods around Hidden Valley Nature Center fill with vernal pools, tiny wetlands that act like nurseries for amphibians. On this guided outing, families walk forest trails to find active pools, learn how to spot egg masses, and understand how these habitats support the wider lake-and-forest ecosystem.

Wear waterproof boots, expect muddy patches, and bring curious kids who do not mind crouching close to the waterline for a better look.
