First Impressions on High Road Walkway Martineztown
Follow the highroad sidewalk back to the beginning of the walk. Along the way, look at the plants in the garden and read the plaques about some things travelers saw on their way to Mexico City on El Camino Real. There are quotes from trail travelers about what they saw.
Think about your first impressions if you traveled through a new or foreign landscape. What would you think if you saw these animals for the first time, without the reference of photos, television, or the internet?
