32319	Notes Notes: Class 32319 is a hiking tour of the Goldwater Lake Trail. Goldwater Lake Trail is a 9-mile forested trail shaded by dense ponderosa pine that occasionally gives way to alligator juniper and chaparral-type vegetation. There are excellent views of Upper and Lower Goldwater Lakes, as well as the high country to the east and west. This trail traverses a landscape of hills and ridges, where the valleys are green with Gambel oak, and a variety of grasses. The trail crosses Bannon Creek twice, which may be flowing in the spring. Birds are especially active in this area. Physical training is strongly recommended as this is a strenuous hike. Students are required to attend orientation on Thursday, September 11, 2025 from 6:00 P - 6:50 P in ESN 103. Transportation provided.
