Field Trip to Openlands Lake Shore Preserve

We will see ravines, bluffs, woodlands and shoreline. We will be starting our visit at the Bartlett Ravine trail. It is .07 miles long; slopping gently to the lakefront. The trail is paved and ADA- accessible. The parking lot is east of the intersection of Westover Rd. and Lyster Rd. (you can enter the intersection on your GPS).

We will meet at Warren Park at 10:00 AM and car-pool from there.  The ride will take under an hour from there. Please RSVP to Eva at evamannaberg@yahoo.com if you plan to go.
