Nature Journaling is back for Fall — and our first gathering is TOMORROW morning!

From curious first graders to folks with decades of wonder under their belts—everyone is invited!

Join us Monday mornings in September for a gentle, creative hour exploring nature through words, sketches, observations, and curiosity. No art or science experience is needed. Just bring yourself and your sense of wonder—all art supplies are provided!

We’ll slow things down and notice the little details we often walk right past: the curl of a leaf, the path of an ant, the texture of bark, or the way sunlight falls across a flower. Then we’ll capture what we notice in our own unique way.

📅 When: Monday morning September 14 & 21, beginning tomorrow, September 14
🕒 Time: 8:45 AM
📍 Where: Main Ranch House at Spring Mountain Ranch State Park
🎒 Bring: Just you! Supplies are provided. If you have a favorite nature journaling tool, feel free to bring it along.

Kids, adults, grandparents, homeschoolers, experienced artists, enthusiastic doodlers, and people who swear they “can’t draw” are all welcome. Nature journaling isn’t about making perfect art—it’s about learning to look closely and becoming curious about what you see.

Come ready to slow down, look closer, ask questions, and let nature inspire your story.

Program Cost:
Nature Journaling is included with your park entrance fee.
$10 per vehicle for Nevada residents
$15 per vehicle for nonresidents

The Nevada State Parks Annual Pass is $100 and covers entrance fees at Nevada State Parks.

♿ Accessibility: Nevada State Parks is committed to providing accessible experiences for all visitors. If you need a reasonable communication accommodation to participate in this event, please contact the park or event coordinator no later than 10 days in advance so we have time to work with you and support your visit.

This stunning view of Mount Wilson is just one of the many breathtaking vantage points along the Ash Grove Trail at Spring Mountain Ranch State Park.

As you wander beneath the shade of towering ash trees, you’ll discover a trail filled with ever-changing scenery—from open meadows and dramatic mountain views to peaceful groves and quiet desert landscapes. There’s always something new to see and enjoy.

Whether you’re visiting for a peaceful walk, a chance to spot wildlife, or simply to enjoy the beauty of the Mojave Desert meeting the Spring Mountains, the Ash Grove Trail is full of moments worth slowing down for.

Think you have sharp eyes? Put them to the test.
Some of our ranch residents are masters of disguise. Whether they're hiding from predators, sneaking up on a meal, or simply trying to stay cool, camouflage is one of nature's greatest survival tools.

Which of these have you seen at the ranch?

The next time your visit remember to slow down and really look. Wildlife is often closer than you think.
