July 25th Quad 4 hike: West Point Inn and Ice Cream Fundraiser

Join docent Caryn Lowe for an interpretive hike to West Point Inn. This month’s stop at the inn coincides with their second ice cream social fundraiser. We’ll be in the sun above the clouds, enjoying the heat and view while we cool down. There is a $7- $10 dollar donation request for each serving that will go towards the preservation of this historic location.
