About this Event
Dirty Girl Adventures Presents: The Konza Prairie in Winter
Compass Point, home of Dirty Girl Adventures, invites you to join us for a unique winter experience on the Konza Prairie!
For 2026, we’re embarking on a mission to visit the Konza Prairie Biological Station in all four seasons. Our goal is to deepen our Prairie experience and knowledge by intentionally observing and embracing the prairie's beauty every season of the year.
This hike is our starting point! Though beautiful year-round, seeing the stark, resting landscape of the Konza in winter offers a new perspective.
Plan to join us:
- Meet-up: 12:30 PM at the Konza Prairie parking lot
- The Hike: We will choose the distance on the day of the hike. There are three loop options, ranging from 1.5 to 4.6 miles—perfect for tailoring to conditions and preferences.
Come share the journey as we intentionally visit, observe, and compare the distinct seasons of the Konza in 2026!
Where: Check in at the Konza Prairie Trail parking area (specific directions will be emailed 24 hours before the event)
What: Guided group hiking with information about the trails and the local flora and fauna.
Bring/Wear: Watch the weather, dress in layers, gloves, hat, bandana, neck gator, trekking poles, shoes with good tread.
Regular cost: $35
Club cost: $30
