In this park residents can enjoy being outdoors near the South Platte River. You’ll learn how to monitor water quality. You’ll measure the quality of the river water and of water in Montclair Creek, which flows into the South Platte. Plan to spend at least 1 to 2 hours at the park to complete this adventure.
