Registration is NOT required for this activity. Plan to arrive early as Saturdays can be very busy, and there is often a long line at the Fee Booth.

Though the event is free, entrance fees to the Natural Area do apply. The park often fills to capacity. To ensure entrance and save time at the Fee Booth, please pre-purchase and print out a day pass.

This program is weather-dependent and subject to cancellation. Check trail conditions on the GCSNA social media pages.
