UPCOMING EVENTS:
Presidio Park Sunset Hike
Saturday, September 11; 5:00-7:00 pm
Cost: $10 per person
Register at the Tree Frog Treks website
Meeting place: Main Post parade
ground, Presidio Park
Please come join us for a
leisurely walk down the hills and trails of our gorgeous Presidio with
Chris
Giorni, Director of Tree Frog
Treks. We will scan the sky for Red-tailed
Hawks, Anna's humming birds and Great Blue Herons as we travel from the
forested hills to the edge of the Bay. Along the way we will gently
flip
a log or two in search of sleeping salamanders and an astounding variety
of
insect life including centipedes, isopods and darkling beetles. We will
identify native plant life and even sample some edible varieties like
Miner’s lettuce as we make our way through the oak woodlands and redwood
groves in our very own Presidio backyard. As the sun sets, we will
listen
quietly for the evening chorus of birds and frogs to signal the end of
another
day. So bundle up, bring a snack, strap on your hiking boots and let’s
get out and get dirty on our crepuscular hike! Meet at Main Post parade ground at 5pm.
RECENT EVENTS:
