After finding macroinvertebrates in a creek and a hike through rusty red terrain, the sixth-graders were ready for lunch.
âThe hike was pretty enjoyable,â said Logan Waggoner, 12, munching on his food. Hanging around his neck on a string was a wooden disk designed with the nature name he chose for the day: Lichen Logan.
Admittedly, Waggoner was excited to miss classes inside Mount Garfield Middle School for a day of learning outside under trees, next to a creek or on a trail.
âIâd like a lot more of it,â he said before leaving the sheltered lunch area for OWLs problem-solving Challenge Course followed by some archery.

In a split decision, the Colorado Supreme Court reversed a lower courtâs ruling that dismissed the conviction of a Grand Junction woman for selling methamphetamine to her 15-year-old stepbrother.
In the case of People v. Murphy, the high court ruled Monday that Mesa County District Judge Lance Timbreza did not err when he allowed a police officer to testify as a lay witness about the body language of the stepbrother when he was interviewed about where he got the drug.
That interview directly led police to search the home of Justine Lynn Murphy, who later was convicted in 2017 of distributing methamphetamine and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. Murphy was sentenced to 8 years in prison, but is now out on parole.
