It is with a heavy heart that we write to inform you that due to the COVID pandemic, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our summer programs at the Valentine/SNARL Reserves.  Our community safety is our top priority and in the current situation we feel unable to ensure the safety of all our students, teachers and teacher assistants.  The situation is very dynamic and as state and local recommendations change we will be open to reevaluating our decision. We appreciate your support and understanding as we all navigate this new reality.  We will miss seeing you at the Reserve but know you will find ways to safely enjoy our great outdoors this summer. Stay healthy and safe.

Guided Walking Tours of the Reserves

Tours of Valentine Camp are offered in the summer, tours of SNARL are offered intermittently. Tours are thematic and offered on wildlife, history, geology, wildflowers, birds, bears and more. The tours are limited to 15 people and are advertised on our website or through our email events list. A modest donation is requested to help support our outreach program to teach science classes to the children of Inyo and Mono County.
