SUMMARY:Trailside Naturalist Table - Why are Lost Dog and Granite Mountain Trails So Different? - Gateway Trailhead
DESCRIPTION:Why are Lost Dog and Granite Mountain Trails So Different? \nLearn why Lost Dog Trails are so rocky and Granite Mountain trails are so much easier to walk on. Ever wonder how the rocks underfoot got there or why you see north to south mountain ranges in the Valley like Camelback\, the McDowells\, or South Mountain? Stop by and you will see rock samples and learn the story of how they got here and what forces created the Preserve mountains. We will answer the question why Lost Dog Trail has so many loose rocks and why Granite Mountain trails are so much smoother. We guarantee you will see and appreciate these rocks differently after learning how far they traveled to get here. \n*Trailside Naturalist Table is a family-friendly educational display on some Saturday mornings.  The presentations feature hands-on materials and specimens and cover a variety of topics about the flora and fauna of the Preserve.  The informal setting allows visitors to ask questions and learn interesting information about the amazing biodiversity of the Sonoran Desert.  Sign up is not necessary\, stop by anytime.
