THING: Interpretive Trail Signs

Do you love a trail sign? We sure do!

We always stop to check out them out. Very important information is always on display in hopes of someone like you stopping to check them out. You can learn about animals, the landscape, history and culture. It is nice to gather information about a place you may be walking through… especially about animals that you will delight but also be aware of! And the terrain, nearby trail systems and any other info the people who created the signs thought you should know. Next time you see one take a few minutes… rest and observe.
