Description: We have a great place to walk near our magnificent Missouri River. North Alabama Bend is located 2 miles southwest of Vermillion. Few people in the Vermillion area know where North Alabama Bend is, much less its significance. We would like to help change that! Geoffrey Gray-Lobe, local naturalist and Missouri River enthusiast, will lead the walk. He will point out native plants, critters, and geological features while discussing natural history and current challenges facing the river. We will walk for at least a mile, depending on the needs of the group.
