Edith Farrell of the Mountain Loop Tourism Bureau will give a presentation on hiking the trails in that area on June 16.
Farrell’s program is part of a summer-long series of programs looking at local history, where to find the best hikes and how to stay safe in the outdoors. Some of the upcoming programs include “Gold Panning 101” and “Hikes Around the Darrington Ranger District.”
The Mountain Loop trails program will be at 8 p.m. at the Gold Basin Campground Amphitheater on the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. The amphitheater is 2.5 miles east of Verlot Public Service Center on the Mountain Loop Highway.
Other upcoming programs include “Lunch with Smokey Bear” at noon on July 7 and “Sarvey Wildlife Birds of Prey” at 7 p.m. that same day.
