The Ottawa Sands landscape is defined by centuries of shifting. From the shifting sands of dune formation to shifting human influences on this unique landscape, the history of this property is as deep as the lake that currently stands as its centerpiece. This hike is a first-hand examination of the complexities of the park’s geologic and human history as well as where it’s heading into the future.
*This hike pairs perfectly with the two “Naturally Speaking: The Shifting Landscape of Ottawa Sands” presentations scheduled for Thursday evenings, 7-8:30 on 10/3 (Nature Center at Hemlock Crossing) and 11/7 (Grand Ravines Lodge).

REGISTRATION IS ENCOURAGED but not required.
