Walk, Lunch & Wine with a Llama - Postponed until 2012
Join the Llamas and an SJMA naturalist for an incredible day on the mountain. Ride the chairlift at DMR and meet at the top with the llamas, who will be carrying your wine, cheese, crackers and lunches. During your hike an SJMA volunteer naturalist will talk about the wildflowers, geology, wildlife and trees of the area. Hike is a moderately easy 5 miles roundtrip.
