Then from 3:30-5:30pm head over to West Point on the Eno for our Tracks and Scat program. Here we will hike through the forest as we take in the beauty of nature and look for signs of animals. From footprints to burrows to scat we will search for signs of animal life in the forest. We will meet at the Environmental Education Center. Follow the blue and yellow signs to the old blacksmith shop.
