To help people better understand the Preserve, FAU club S.E.E.D.S. (Strategies for Ecology Education Diversity and Sustainability) has constructed the "Tortuga Trail" through the Preserve and honestly, they've done a pretty good job. As a nature trail fan, I'm very happy to see this and think it could still be preserved even when the Innovation Village build-out is complete. As it stands, the longest path takes about a half hour to walk but there are a couple diverting paths throughout. Here's the main idea:
And here are some of my pictures from the trail:
Additionally, SEEDS has been holding a "Trail of Terror" event during Halloween week where students walk the trail as "monsters" (SEEDS volunteers) jump out to scare you - an AWESOME idea Program Board is working with them and hopefully this will grow that into a large-scale event.
In case you can't read it (the font is fancy!), this year's Trail of Terror is scheduled for October 26th (this Friday!), 30th and 31st from 7-10 pm. Looks like you enter from the parking lot north of the stadium.
GO OWLS!
