While looking for more spaces to put caches last week, we went to go find a couple. After figuring out there was plenty of room to hide on this trail, we went for it.
FROM BAKER WETLAND WEBSITE: "Students, faculty, and nature lovers have identified 278 species of birds, 98 other vertebrate species, and 487 plant species at the Wetlands—and these counts grow with each adventure. This exceptional environment gives students a unique opportunity for increased exploration and education about biological and ecological processes. The Baker University Wetlands work takes place on ancestral land belonging to the original stewards of these lands and watersheds: the Kaw Nation, the Osage Nation, the Kickapoo Tribe, as well as those tribal communities represented by Haskell Indian National University. We acknowledge the living history and contributions of the indigenous communities who inhabited this land before the establishment of the Baker University Wetlands.
