LAKE COUNTY, Calif. On Saturday, Nov. 6, join park docent Walt Lyon for a walk on the Indian Nature Trail in Clear Lake State Park, 5300 Soda Bay Road, Kelseyville.
Meet Lyon at the entrance parking lot at 8:30 a.m. to start the ascent of this intriguing hillside trail. Wear sturdy walking shoes for safety on this trail. There is no entrance fee to the park for participating in walks. However, rain cancels the walk.
Seasonal changes are taking place rapidly in the landscape. It is an excellent time to recognize the ways in which different plants disperse their seeds and prepare for regeneration. Some year-round residents, like the western gray squirrel, are preparing for winter.
Lyon, who understands the history of the park and the importance of maintaining it for future generations, will describe how Native Americans used the natural resources along this trail to enrich and sustain their lives.
Many plants were used for both medicinal purposes and a food source. Find out which plants were used to help with catching fish.
The Indian Nature Trail was built in 1959 for a mere $1,000 to give park visitors a great walking experience, as well as showing the importance of the natural resources in the park.
Join Lyon for an inspirational outdoor experience on this trail for all seasons.
Clear Lake State Park Interpretive Association sponsors walks throughout the year. Visit www.clearlakestatepark.org for additional information and photos of Clear Lake State Park.
