Take time to read the signs so you can learn

about the environment you are in.

We walk only on the designated trails to ensure

surrounding vegetation remains healthy.

We leave the rocks in place. They support the

trails and control erosion.

Look carefully, however, do not wade into or

throw anything in the ponds so as not to disturb

the wildlife.

Animals feed on plants, insects, and other

animals found in the natural environment. Help

them stay healthy and wild by not feeding them.

Pack out what you pack in. Return garbage to

bins at Summit Plaza area.
