Join Indiana DNR ecologist, Nate Simons, on a guided hike at Loon Lake Nature Preserve on Nov. 21 from 1 – 2:30 p.m. ET. This 1-mile hike will take participants through an oak woodland with occasional glimpses of Loon Lake. The trail leads to the edge of a lakeside sedge meadow where participants will be able to enjoy the golden fall color of tamarack trees up close and personal. Participants will stop along the way to experience a very large open-grown white oak – a relic of a much more open landscape.

Participants should meet in the parking lot at 3300 W Loon Lake Road, Angola, IN. Parking is unpaved and limited to about 5 vehicles. This hike is moderately difficult and terrain includes mowed trail, a short boardwalk, and a squishy sedge meadow. Wet boots are recommended but water (if any) should be less than ankle deep. No restrooms are available.

Please register to attend this free event.
