An after-hours, naturalist-guided hike through the woodlands of Johnson's Mound Forest Preserve near Elburn on Thursday, November 12, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Hikers learn how nocturnal animals are adapted to find their way in the dark and are asked to leave flashlights at home so their night vision can take over. Free; advance registration required. Families with school-age children who are comfortable walking in the dark will enjoy it most.
