Description

MUST PURCHASE TICKETS HERE TO ATTEND https://joinoutsiders.com/chicago Join us on Saturday, March 11 for our Grant Woods Trail hike at Fox Lake! There is a lot of variety in this gently rolling landscape of woodlands, prairie, and marsh. One area, designated as a protected Illinois Nature Preserve, was never farmed and thus is rich in rare native plants. It even supports a tamarack bog, a rarity in this region. Bring your hiking shoes or sturdy sneakers (you’ll need them), dress warm, pack water and a sandwich, invite some friends and get ready to enjoy the outdoors. We’ll start the day at The Long Room. After the hike we'll make our way to a local eatery for food and drinks before heading back home.
