Description: You are lost and the storm clouds are gathering as night descends. Could you light a fire in the soggy woods? Join naturalist Dan Daly in this family oriented class to learn how to light a one-match fire in the toughest conditions. Participants use knives during class, and the safe conduct of young children is the responsibility of their guardians.

No-dogs policy: To protect plants, wildlife and people, Metro does not allow pets at regional parks and natural areas. Pets can damage sensitive habitat and threaten wildlife the region has worked to protect. In natural areas where dogs are not allowed, people see more wildlife and get closer to it. Seeing-eye dogs or other service animals are permitted with proper identification and cleanup materials. http://www.oregonmetro.gov/parks/dogs-hunting-policies
