SUMMARY:Desert Bighorn Sheep Hike
DESCRIPTION:Join Don Regan and Paula Willoughby as they guide you on a hike focused on observing bighorn sheep in their natural habitat. Bighorn sheep are known for their impressive horns and adaptability to rugged terrain\, they can be elusive and may blend into their surroundings. Bring binoculars or a spotting scope to enhance your chances of spotting them from a distance. \nRemember that wildlife sightings are never guaranteed\, so patience and a respectful approach are key. Enjoy the natural beauty of the surroundings even if you don’t spot bighorn sheep on every hike. \nJoin Don Regan\, a retired energy industry geologist\, former COLM park ranger and longtime CNMA volunteer Paula Willoughby\, biologist\, educator and former seasonal park ranger.  Paula enjoys leading astronomy programs\, geology programs and guided hikes. When not volunteering you can find her outside biking and exploring the Colorado Plateau with her teardrop travel trailer. \n  \nHike details –\n\nMeeting at the Lower Monument Canyon Trailhead at 8:30am; risk forms must be signed upon registration. (If directions are needed\, please email kmahoney@coloradonma.org)\nApproximately 5 miles\, plan for a 4–5-hour moderately strenuous hike.\nBring water\, snacks\, layers and lunch if needed.\nHike may be cancelled or postponed if there is rain or weather within 24 hours of start time\, emails will be sent if hike is cancelled.\,\nPark passes are required for entry\, as always please carpool when possible.\n\nPhoto credit – Jerry Fleck
