UVLT Outdoor Programs Leader Holly Henderson is leading two trips to discover the biodiversity of Pohl Conservation Area: a brisk, fun-paced Nordic ski trip and a slower snowshoe hike. Both will include a visit to the largest black birch tree in the nation!
Skiers will stop occasionally to note changes in natural communities, observe wildlife tracks and behavior, and listen for birdsong, while snowshoers will stop more frequently to snap pictures and identify trees and wildlife tracks with iNaturalist and record birds using EBird.
Note that this event is taking place in conjunction with the annual Hartland Winter Trails Tiki Torch Trek, a free, family-friendly event from 3:30-8:30 p.m.!
Ski trek: 3-3:45 p.m.
Snowshoe trek: 4-4:45 p.m.
Limit of 15 for each event – Register here for the ski trip. Register here for the snowshoe hike.
