Simms Mesa Interpretive Trail on Dave Wood Road (Montrose)
Leader: Don Marsh

Meet in Montrose at 8 a.m. at the North 2nd St. and Cascade parking lot. We will carpool to the trailhead and walk along the trail in the ponderosa pines for a mile or two. Birds we might see or hear include Red Crossbill, Red-naped and Williamson Sapsuckers, Gray, Dusky and Olive-sided Flycatchers, and Black-headed Grosbeak. Although the trail is well maintained, we recommend good boots with ankle support. Also bring water, snacks, and binoculars. We will return to Montrose around noon.
