Visit animals and Bald Eagles and hike at Rocky Mtn. Arsenal
Details
Directions to the Arsenal are on their website. We'll meet there at 9:00 am. The visit to the Arsenal is free. And it's very interesting if you have never been there and don't know anything about it. I have contacted the Arsenal. If possible they are going to provide a ranger to tell us something about the Arsenal. Also, on their website under Tours, you can click onto the podcast and listen to information about the Arsenal as you do the drive.

Please be there by 9:00 am in the visitors center. There is a lot of information in there including what the Arsenal used to be. They made and stored mustard gas in case it was needed in WWII.
Behind the visitor's center they have an enclosure with black-footed ferrets in it. But they are usually hiding.
Then we will do the wildlife drive. There are lot of deer, bison and other small animals. About 50 bald eagles winter there. If we are lucky, we might see a few.
After the drive we'll do one of the hikes around some of the ponds. They are all easy hikes of not over four miles.
Scott I'll be driving a grey 2014 Ford Escape.
