“In every walk with nature one _________ than he seeks.” — John Muir. Calling nature explorers of all ages! We have quest than needs to be solved. Our trail is whispering with words, but there’s a problem. A few of the words are missing! Adventure down our red path to not only become inspired by these famous words but see if you can fill in all the blanks.

Make sure to start in the nature center for a Quote Quest card and return with all the missing words to earn your prize. There will be both adult quotes and kid quotes to be solved.
