Group Hike at Spirit Mound (National Park Week)

Description

Celebrate two important anniversaries with an evening hike at Spirit Mound Historic Prairie! Join Friends of the Missouri National Recreational River at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 25, as we mark the 222nd anniversary of Lewis and Clark’s historic hike up Spirit Mound and celebrate the National Park Service’s 110th birthday. During this approximately 1.5-mile round-trip hike, we’ll explore the mound’s rich history, unique geology, native prairie, birds, and other wildlife. The hike is considered moderate and includes a gradual climb to the summit. After the hike, enjoy a cupcake in honor of the National Park Service’s birthday. All are welcome to join us for this relaxed evening of history, nature, and celebration.

Please contact info@fomnrr.org in advance if you need any accommodations to participate. This Group Hike is part of a larger series of events for National Park Week. Explore the full schedule at www.fomnrr.org/events.
