This park is not well know but it is a lovely enclave of native habitat along Eld Inlet. There is one parking lot, walk down the stairs from it through the yellow metal gate and down to the meadow. We will meet at the covered picnic shelter in the meadow.

Every grief hike begins with an opening circle, an acknowledgement of who is here and who we are carrying in our hearts. Then we walk in silence for 10 minutes. Then the group morphs and changes, small groupings or solitary walkers.  Conversations can be deep or light, mixing the here and now with our shut away places. And are times of walking with another in silence. We know each of us is somewhere in their grief journey and all are welcome.We end with a closing circle.

Getting there:
