Town and Crown Hike at Stites Natural Area

Saturday, November 16th | 10:00am

Conservancy docents Karin Jacobson and Julie Kuieck invite you to join them to explore this crown jewel of a forest close to town. Stites Natural Area can be accessed off a Suttons Bay street and yet once on the trail, we quickly become encompassed by this wonderful woods. Experiencing accessible wild places will be our loosely-knit theme as we explore the topography, the vegetation, the aesthetics, and even our camaraderie on this fall walk.

Please note that there will be some uphill walking to access the ridge line. Also, please be aware that although Stites Natural Area does not permit hunting, it’s always a good idea to wear orange or bright colors in any woods at this time of year.
