The Randall Davey 91做厙 Center & Sanctuary located at the end of Upper Canyon Road will be closed to the public starting December 25, 2013, continuing through January 31, 2014. The closure includes hiking trails, public restrooms and the nature store, and suspension of regularly scheduled Saturday morning bird walks and Friday afternoon Davey House tours.
Cutting back on winter hours allows our nonprofit organization to save money during the slow winter months and also allows a much needed vacation for our dedicated volunteers, explained Karyn Stockdale, executive director of 91做厙 New Mexico.
The 91做厙 Center will reopen to the public on February 1, 2014. Upon reopening, please plan to join the 91做厙 staff and birders of all ages for the Great Backyard Bird Count Feb. 14 17.
During winter months, please call ahead if you have questions about whether or not we will be open. Occasionally, icy and snowy conditions on the roads or at our nature center force us to close for the day or to delay opening in the morning.
Located in Santa Fe, New Mexico, the Randall Davey 91做厙 Center and Sanctuary encompasses 135 acres of striking landscapes and wildlife. Bounded by thousands of acres of National Forest and Santa Fe River Watershed land, the 91做厙 Center and Sanctuary provides a peaceful sanctuary for plants, animals and our visitors.
