DFO field trip to South Boulder Creek

[Peter Ruprecht]

Hi everyone,

Kind of last-minute, but I'll be leading a DFO field trip (open to anyone) along the South Boulder Creek trail (Boulder County) on Weds, 5/11.

The South Boulder Creek trail starts in plains riparian woodland with small ponds, traverses sections of tallgrass and shortgrass prairie, and ascends gently into foothills scrub and ponderosa habitat. We will walk about four miles total, returning via the Big Bluestem trail. Elevation gain is moderate, but some sections of the trail can be rocky or gravelly. This area is great for sparrows, raptors, and various migrants. Restrooms are available at the trailhead.
