Queer Hike: Nature Journaling at Skyline Ridge Open Space

Join other members of our queer community in exploring the incredible Santa Cruz Mountains, and spending time outdoors with nature journaling. Have you ever wondered what happens in the tiny cracks of tree bark, the canopy of trees, or under the leaves? Join us for a journaling experience to observe the small details all around us!
