Dress for the weather and expect to walk about 1.5 miles. Some of the walking is over uneven ground so wear sturdy footwear. Bring water, snacks, and sunscreen. PLEASE NOTE: the area is undeveloped and does not have bathrooms.
Meet at the L & I parking lot at 7273 Linderson Way SW, near Tumwater High School. Plan to carpool, since parking is limited at West Rocky Prairie. A Discover Pass is needed for all vehicles. Group size is limited to 12 people and three vehicles. Call Gary Wiles at 360-943-8786 for reservations.
