Who has lived at Ramsay-Shockey Open Space? Why is there a reservoir here? We'll explore the history of this place and how it fits into our region. This is part of the "Get to Know" series at Ramsay-Shockey Open Space. Topics include ecology, history, and how Larimer County Department of Natural Resources manages this property. Participants will hike the Besant Point Trail (approximately 3 miles total). This hike will be easy/moderate, traveling over unpaved trails, uneven surfaces, mild elevation gain, and may include mud.
