The Hike
This hike is most enjoyable and informative when you plan to join one of the scheduled interpretive walks with a park ranger. However, for those who wish to go without a ranger, there is an informational brochure available. But either way, do this short hike, for the route passes through six geological formations — meaning that when you are done you will have hiked through eighty million years of time.
