History is fun!

It's not just the fascinating settlers and their buildings. Our history team members will talk about the local C&S railroad, the Silicated Brick factory, local quarries and ranches, and the variety of ways homesteaders could obtain land from the government. Enjoy the October foliage among the dramatic rock formations.

Saturday, October 24: Homesteads of the South Trails (strenuous) ... 7 miles; turn-back options at 1.5 and 2 miles; bring lunch

Sunday, October 25: Homesteads of the Fountain Valley (easy) ... 2.2 miles

Meet at the Visitor Center patio at 8:00 am for a brief orientation. Bring water and dress for the weather.

The park fills up quickly so arrive at the Visitor Center early to make sure you are there in time for the hike.
