Trailside Nature and Science Center - Finally

We made it, and it was open. There are just so many interesting things to look.






This is an authentic replication of a bark house used by the Lenape Indians who inhabited the area. There was alot of artifacts to see and hold. There was plenty of information about the society, pictures and quiz yourself stations.



This was inside the nocturnal animals exhibit. It is a dark enclosure that runs about a 5 minute presentation on animals and insects that are out at night - really well done.


This tree was real - and was 518 years old! The green markers traced historical events through the rings of the tree growth. The center was estimated at 1420. Neat way to see history laid out.
