Take a walk while reading a book!
During the months of May and June, hike the Point Robinson Trails and read
Otter Doesn’t Know, by Andrea Fritz. This modern tale told in traditional

You’ll find Oscar perched in the upper meadow, just off the trail that starts near the northeastern corner of the upper parking lot. Keep an eye out for a tall post with a birdhouse—he’s close by!
Oscar is one of six unique sculptures created by Danish artist Thomas Dambo, who is known worldwide for transforming recycled materials into large-scale art. Through his work, Thomas encourages people to see "trash" in a new light—as something full of creative potential.
This sculpture is part of the Northwest Trolls: Way of the Bird King series. Learn more at www.nwtrolls.org
