## About

A self-guided family treasure hunt on the trails. An educator hands out a clipboard with clues, a map and an answer key in the Great Hall; families then search for six treasure chests, each holding a puzzle piece, an animal artifact and an educational riddle. At the end everyone can customize their own puzzle. Priced per family group of up to six; children must be with an adult. Indoors and outdoors.
