Photograph the historic Chapel on the Rock, drink from a mountain spring, and if you like birds, we can visit a wildlife habitat certified yard with feeders that can attract Evening Grosbeaks, Red Crossbills, Cassin's Finches, Steller's Jays, Mountain Chickadees, and Pygmy Nuthatches. In the summer, there are good chances for Band-tailed Pigeon here too.
