Looking for something to do with the kids over winter break? You found it! Join Ranger Kevin for this 1.5-mile hike on the Pipeline Canyon and Yavapai Point trails. Prior to the hike, we’ll talk about the Junior Ranger program, set up every young person with their own activity book, and then we’ll actually do some of the activities together on our hike as a way to get a head start on becoming an official Junior Ranger! The hike is generally easy, but will have stretches with loose rock and uneven terrain, so please wear closed-toe shoes. Restrooms are available at the trailhead. Please, NO pets.
MEETING LOCATION: Cottonwood trailhead
