Autumn Colors at Wolf Run

Sunday, November 7th

10:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST 

 

Join us for an autumn stroll at Wolf Run Preserve, which protects nearly a mile of the Vermilion River and contains a variety of habitats and unique geological formations. We'll walk along the river, pausing to admire the shale cliffs towering over its banks and explore the ice-scour micro-prairies in its floodplain. On the opposite side of the preserve, we'll venture into the picturesque, winding box canyon where tiny Wolf Run, a tributary of the Vermilion, flows. We'll take in the fall colors along the way.
