Join us for this hike in Monterey. Rated moderate, the hike is a loop with a wonderful beaver pond, the most unusual dedicated bench on the BNRC properties, and magnificent views to the east and north. Beautiful bedrock faces are covered in icicles and the frozen ponds make beaver sightings more likely. Plan on two and a half hours for this hike.

What to Bring: Hiking in the winter is a special experience but it does require thoughtful preparation. Please be sure you have appropriate clothing – good hats, mittens/gloves, and wind and water proof outer layers if possible. Trails can be slippery. All winter hikers should use poles and micro-spikes. BNRC can provide extra poles, microspikes and snowshoes if needed.
Cancellation: Winter weather may mean we can’t hike on a designated day. We will notify all registered hikers by 8:00 AM about changes. We will cancel if the actual or feels like temperature is 15 degrees or below. If a snowfall means snowshoeing is an option, we will send a notification by 8:00 AM. BNRC does have snowshoes to borrow if you don’t have your own.
