September’s Outing:
It's been a hot Summer, so September's adventure is an out-and-back hike in a shady pocket of Buescher State Park known for big oak trees and a vibrant understory of resurrection ferns, American beauty berry, and Yaupon holly.
We’ll hike to a spot where it’s easy to find tracks and scat of local wildlife, take a seat in the shade, and talk about how to find time for adventure in a busy schedule and how to get the most out of short outings like these!
