It’s National S’mores Day, so we had to take a look back at one of our favorite memories!

On May 18, 2024, our community came together to celebrate Fort Stevenson’s 50th anniversary and make a little history. We made 1,150 s’mores at the same time and officially set a Guinness World Records title!

It was such a fun day! Were you there?

Look what we found! If you've had a chance to walk the Flicker Loop Trail, you may have spotted a unique find nestled under the juniper trees. Attendant Gina noticed three quite large Western puffball mushrooms earlier this summer. Sizes ranged from volleyball to soccer ball.

Fun fact: they are the only mushroom that have no gills and are completely white and sponge like on the inside.

Here's your call to head out on the trails, you never know what you might see!
