Oxbow Adventures

Our school goes out to Oxbow Park about every other week come springtime. Yesterday was one of those days! It was a gorgeous day to be out and about in the woods!

Here's the crew I went with. One 5th grader, three 3rd graders, one 1st grader and 3 adults! We went on a nice long 2 hour hike on the Zumbro Trail.

We took breaks to look around and play a bit too.

We only  saw these on one tree, but they were the brightest orange! Interesting...

The woods were beautiful.

The kids got quite excited when I spotted tracks. 

The Third Bridge area has undergone some reconstruction since last summer. 

Some were tired after our long hike. 

We ended our trip by spending some quality time with the baby porcupine. He's SO adorable!
