Help a park ranger solve a wildlife mystery!
How can we find out what animals have been out and about at Hill Country State Natural Area? By using tracks! Join a park ranger on the Merrick Mile to discover wildlife tracks, scat, and more. The Merrick Mile is an unpaved, easy-moderate trail with a slight elevation gain, so get ready for an adventure!
