About HATs and our hikes
https://www.hatsandmore.org/

HATs organizers are not guides and have no special training. We are here to come up with hiking ideas and get the hike started. Expect the same risks and take the same precautions you would take if you were hiking alone, including the fitness level make long hikes. Then enjoy the hike among friends.

COVID Precautions:
Our area is experiencing a sizable increase in cases of COVID. Please do your fellow hikers the courtesy of wearing a mask at any time we are not hiking.

The Hike:
We will hike two units of the San Bernard Wildlife Refuge that we didn't visit last year, with about a drive of about 20 minutes between each hike.

The Park:
The San Bernard NWR, Brazoria NWR and Big Boggy NWR comprise the Texas Mid-Coast complex. Combined with the other refuges along the Texas coast, these lands provide the most important migratory bird habitat in North America.

There is a one mile nature trail and a driving tour of the nearby Brazoria NWR. We won’t be doing it as a group because of the limited parking. If you are not joining HATs for an after hike lunch, this would be a great option to fill out the day.
