The Coterie Natural Area boasts a peaceful dirt trail where hikers can spot prairie dogs native to the area, a protected colony that prompted the city to acquire this open space in 2000.

The Coterie Natural Area is a small preserve off of the Spring Creek Trail. You can often see prairie dogs here, which are part of a protected colony. They are actually the reason why the city acquired this area in 2000.
