[HIKE] Gotta love a hike titled "Owls! Owls, night-stalkers and more!" This is a hardcore night hike through Hosmer Grove in search of the deadly and elusive owl. Okay, so owls are only deadly to small rodents. But rodents have lives and loves and fears just like you and me. To them, owls are terrifying and creepy. Now wildlife researchers have seen Short Eared Owls—named because they, well, have short ears—and even a dreaded Barn Owl or two in and around the grove. Keep in mind that these owls see really, really well in the dark, and have been known to spear mice with its long claws even in nearly complete darkness. The hike is free, but it costs $10 to get a seven-day pass into the national park. For more information, call 572-4459. [ANTHONY PIGNATARO]
