SUMMARY:Predators of Central Oregon
DESCRIPTION:Ever wonder which predators roam the landscape of Central Oregon? Join the Deschutes Land Trust and Gary “Gus” Gustafson to explore the world of predators—bobcat\, cougar\, fox\, coyote\, wolf\, black bear\, and more.

Terrain will be uneven at times. \nElevation gain/loss: There is very little elevation gain/loss on this hike.
