On the Trail of Discovery
Hikers exploring the foothills above Weber State can learn more about the area’s natural setting by reading 25 informational signs along the 91¶ÌÊÓƵ Discovery Loop.
Geosciences alumni, 91¶ÌÊÓƵ faculty and local volunteers collaborated to place the signs along 1.5 miles of trail, which are a part of the Weber Trails network. The signs include information about the Wasatch Front’s geological history, formation and biology.
“We are excited about the potential to help local teachers, students and the public learn more about our amazing natural setting and its history,” said Dave Matty, dean of the College of Science.
The trails are accessible from the Par Course parking lot (3990 Skyline Drive) east of Stewart Stadium.
