Alvar Road

This gravel road between Lake Dalrymple Rd. and CKL #35 is closed in winter, and can be difficult for cars in very wet periods, especially east of Wylie Rd. Cut through a forested section with small alvar openings, it will require quiet listening and walking to fully appreciate the surroundings. Stop frequently and look for Hermit Thrush, Magnolia Warbler, Yellow-rumped Warbler, White-throated Sparrow, Purple Finch and Indigo Bunting. A wide variety of Butterflies and Dragonflies are all around.
