Since 1934 they have been caring for wildlife, protecting the natural habitat of the local hawk population, and more. An average of 20,000 hawks, eagles, and falcons pass through the lookouts during the late summer and fall every year. Explore the trails, visitor center, and majestic overlooks for a great day.
