Flag Hill

A strenuous hike will take you to the top of Flag Hill, which is composed of
layers of fossil-rich sandstone formed some 13 million years ago. You’ll enjoy great
views and good opportunities to watch birds and other wildlife. Ambitious hikers may
take an optional detour to Indian Joe Cave Rocks.

Please note that this is NOT an easy hike. It is recommended for Bear Cubs and older. Parents should also be in good shape and ready for a challenging hike.
