Join Aiken, Tyler Stewart and Michael Rogers on June 3rd at 630a for an approximately 3 hour walk. Meet in the parking lot, map below. We will lead two separate groups through Aiken Canyon.
Named after ornithologist, Dr. Charles Aiken, this is a great destination for birders. Over 100 species have been seen here. Located 16 miles south of Colorado Springs, these 1,621-acres are where Aiken raised his herd of sheep. Aiken Canyon is one of the last high-quality examples of the southern Front Range foothills ecosystem. The preserve is composed of a mosaic of habitat types, including shrub lands, tall grass prairie meadows, pinyon juniper woodlands and mixed coniferous woodlands. Make sure you bring sturdy boots for hiking and plenty of water.
- Appropriate for all levels of birders.
- Physical difficulty: Moderate/difficult.
- Meet at Aiken Canyon (map) at 6:30 am.
- Limited to 10 participants.
