There will be an optional hike from there to peek at Chocolate Falls on BLM Land. Our guides will be Bird Biologist,  Frank Lospalluto, and Botanist and Stewardship Director, Kristi Mergenthaler, so there will be birding and flower-admiring along the way. However, they will not be the day’s primary focus.
