Kick off our 24-hour BioBlitz with hands-on iNaturalist training. Learn how to use the app to identify and log the species you encounter, then head out on a self-led exploration of Red Mountain Park. Look for insects, wildflowers, trees, and anything else that catches your eye. Trail maps will be available at the BioBlitz HQ. Please download the iNaturalist app on your phone before arriving so you're ready to go.

Accessibility: This program has seating available at the restroom/pavilion area at the front entrance of the park. There is a gravel path with a slight incline to get into the park.

Disclaimer: This program has limited space available. Please register to attend.
If you register but are unable to attend, please email programs@jeffcogreenways.org so we can open the spot for someone else.
