Community Land Connection Series: Horn Ranch History Hike

October 12, 2024 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm

This program is full. To add your name to the waitlist, please email community@evlt.org

Join Eagle Valley Land Trust, Eagle County Historical Society, and Eagle County Open Space on a guided hike at Horn Ranch. Learn about the fascinating history of the Horn Ranch sandstone quarry and the larger-than-life characters who lived and worked on the ranch. This is a rare opportunity to visit private land. Don’t miss it! 

When: Saturday, October 12 from 9:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Where: Horn Ranch in between Eagle and Wolcott. We’ll meet in the parking area on the north side of Highway 6.

What to expect: Dress for the season in warm layers and wear sturdy shoes to walk on uneven, rocky terrain that is very steep in areas. The first half mile will be on a flat, dirt road. From there, we’ll have a short but steep hike up to the quarry site. The ascent to the lookout points on the cliff has some rocky and loose sections.

This program is weather-dependent and intended for humans only. While we love dogs, we kindly ask that you leave your furry friends at home.
