Clues begin at the Trail Head of the Kal-Haven Trail in Kalamazoo. From M-43 (West Main St.) go North on 10th St. Signs direct you to Kal-Haven Trail and parking on West side of 10th St.
Easy clues, easy walk with short steep climb for find. About 1 mile round trip.
Every year, birdies fly North, birdies fly South. This little birdie follows the Kal-Haven Trail to find its' way home. Birdie flies West over the caboose to where pavement ends. From there, birdie counts 'bench marks'. 3 Rights...Left, Right, Left...2 Rights. Birdie takes a rest at the deluxe bench dedicated to Deborah K. Simpson.
Consider that as the First of the military style cadence: Left, Left, ya Left Right Left. "I left my wife in New Orleans with 26 kids and a can o' beans." -Nothing to do with the clues - just something we used to sing in Junior High Marching Band Practice!
So birdie flies on until a sign reminds her to stop and turn around because she's flown too far. Just 5 wing beats (10 steps) back to a little wildlife path on the right. Fly up the path to the fence. 7 steps left along the fenceline to a 5-trunked tree. There you will find that Birdie made it Home.
If you get the the cross street, you've gone too far.
Hike length: 1 mile
