Walden Ponds Hiking Area
The Walden Ponds in Boulder, CO are a great example of the power of reclaiming former industrial areas into a nature habitat, as these ponds used to be gravel pits and now form a flourishing wetland habitat. Named for Walden Toevs - the Boulder County Commissioner who spearheaded the project to convert the old pits into a wildlife habitat - this area now has hiking trails winding their way through several ponds and grasslands where wildlife-viewing and bird-watching opportunities abound.
