Description:  The tail end of winter is an exciting time. Come share the joy in getting to know these woods through the seasons. Pine plantation, wetlands, ponds, and upland forest offer a wealth of change to observe. We will walk through watching for emerging plant life, animal activity, early birds and many changes in the trees, shrubs, and mosses.

Please dress for the weather, and perhaps bring a snack for the wind-down. Trails are likely to be icy this time of year so cramp-ons and/or walking sticks or poles are strongly advised. Washrooms are not available.

Registration is required.  Non-members are welcome. All participants will need to sign an insurance waiver.
