Time-traveling walk through Corriel Nature Preserve Iowa
John Lawrence Hanson sketches a late evening tour of the Corriel Nature Preserve in Muscatine County near the Cedar River. He highlights dunes, Eastern prickly pear cactus, bogs, snails, and rare Green milkweed while noting conservation easements offered by Bur Oak Land Trust and the area’s land-use tensions between growth and preservation.
