SUMMARY:Biology Hike in Echo Canyon
DESCRIPTION:Park volunteer\, Tim Beagley\, will lead a hike through Echo Canyon to survey the living organisms that dwell in high desert canyons.   \nThe high desert canyons of Colorado National Monument present a harsh environment where living things seem very creative in meeting the requirements of life.  \nDuring the hike we’ll look for and discuss plants\, animals and even microscopic forms of life. Hikers will learn how they acquire water and energy. They will also see how living things get the building materials (atoms and molecules) of life. Finally\, the group will see how living things cooperate in communities to form habitats where they can exist.  \nDr. Beagley earned a PhD in Biology studying the molecular evolution and interactions of animals that make up coral reefs.  \nDetails:  \n\nDate & Time: Thursday\, October 15th 10:30 am- 2:00 pm\n\n\nLocation: We will meet at Devil’s Kitchen Picnic Shelter. \n\n\nRegistration: Risk forms must be signed prior to beginning the hike. You must have a RSVP to attend this hike.\n\n\nDistance: 3.2 miles roundtrip\, plan for a three hour\, moderate hike. \n\n\nBring: Water\, snacks\, layers and lunch if needed. \n\n\nNote: Hike may be cancelled or postponed due to weather. Park passes are required. Carpooling is encouraged. \nCash donations accepted on site or donate at https://coloradonma.org/donate-and-enjoy/\n\n  \n
