Quick pics: Hiking the park

Hiking guide Charles Gallus, front, leads Rebecca Parker, from left, Mohammad Meustafa, Tarina Waterworth and Nathan Kesecker on a Community Education hike through Beaver Creek Park Saturday. Gallus told the class some history of the Bear Paw Mountains and Beaver Creek during the 3-mile trek through meadows of rich grass and wild flowers with knowledge of vegetation and wildlife. The trip gave a spectacular view of Mount Otis, the highest point in Beaver Creek Park, and vast rich valleys coming to life in the spring.
