The herd rotates through restoration zones and may move sooner or later than estimated. Check the map shortly before your visit.
Find the flockPlan Your Visit
Find the flock without surprising the flock. Check the current location, choose a nearby trail entrance, and review the safety guidance before leaving home.

The flock is viewed from the paved trail. Distance from parking and temporary crowding vary by grazing area, so use the map to plan the shortest practical route.
