HSSP hosts day hike

Wyoming State Parks, Historic Sites and Trails will be hosting "First Day Hikes" throughout the state on January 1.

Hot Springs State Park will be hosting one, too, starting at 11 a.m.

Participants should meet at the Kiwanis shelter where the group will divide into two, one group taking the river walk, which is about a half-mile, while the more adventurous group will take the Spirit Trail, which is about a mile long.

"There is nothing more rejuvenating than sharing a brisk hike with Wyoming State Park staff in some of the most amazing parks and historic sites in the country," State Parks Administrator Domenic Bravo said.

Boysen State Park will also host a day hike through moderate to difficult terrain. The hike begins at park headquarters at 10 a.m. Dogs on leashes will be permitted.

Park staff and volunteers will lead the hikes,
