This event is now history, but we have many more wonderful programs in store for you!
Join in a high-elevation snorkeling adventure with Park Ranger Phil Hylen along the Doe River from 2-4PM on Saturday, August 30th. Starting with an intro snorkeling lesson at the Campground Check-in Station, the excursion will lead up the Doe River along the Tom Gray Trail to explore local fish, crawfish, insects, salamander, and more! Your findings will help determine the health of the Doe River and any new species will be recorded. Be sure to bring close-toed water shoes to protect your feet. Wet suits are not required, but average water temperatures can be below 64 degrees F.
This adventure is limited to 15 people ages 12+. The cost per person is $20.00. Masks and snorkels will be provided to participants, but you are welcome to bring your own. Meet at the front porch of the Campground Check-in Station to begin.
