For the safety of both visitors and the Preserve's residents, no motorized
vehicles are allowed within the Preserve boundary.
In order to prevent the creation of many trails crisscrossing the Preserve
and to ensure the safety of visitors, users of the Preserve must remain on designated and posted trails.
Feeding wildlife is prohibited. Doing so causes the animals to become tolerant of, and in some cases dependent on, people. Often these animals become an issue and must be removed from the wild. You do them a better service by not feeding them.
One of the intentions of any preserve is to have a natural area where the visual presence of the humanity is absent. Leaving your mark on the Preserve is vandalism and therefore graffiti, building cairns, destruction of plants, littering, or other forms of vandalism are prohibited
A permit is needed to bring alcohol into the Preserve.
The Preserve is open from sunrise to sunset. Thus, any activity in the Preserve after sunset, including camping is not appropriate.
FIre is a critical threat to the Preserve. Therefore, no fires, smoking, or fireworks can be utilized in the Preserve
While welcome in the Preserve, dogs must remain on a leash at all times, stay on established trails and waste must be picked up and disposed of properly. Keeping your dog on a leash protects your dog from interacting with wildlife or becoming injured.
Glass and other fragile materials are very hard to clean up if discarded in the Preserve. Please leave glass bottles in your car.
There is a rule of thumb used by most nature enthusiasts: Bring only what you need, take only what you brought. Please respect the Preserve and its inhabitants by leaving the plants, rocks, animals, artifacts or any other items where you found them.
As on all city property, fire arms - including paintball guns and all firing devices - are prohibited.
