Winter Woods Walk
February 22, 2020 @ 8:30 am - 10:30 am
Naturalist Molly Hale will lead this walk to explore the ecotone between flooded wetland and adjacent forest, looking for signs of animal activity and winter survival strategies. We’ll walk along Boggy Meadow Rd. to the beaver pond, then head off-trail to follow the contours of the terrain. Be prepared for muddy and/or icy conditions. Proper footgear is a must! Meet at the Cooke Ave. entrance to Fitzgerald Lake Conservation Area.
