Peepers, Salamanders, and Wood Frogs, Oh My! Join Upper Valley Land Trust staff and the Norwich Conservation Commission for our 2nd Annual hike through our Brookmead Conservation Area to observe a few vernal pools and identify its current inhabitants. While we hike, we will discuss the importance of vernal pools and why we need to protect them for critters like the local amphibians.
Please note: the hike out to the vernal pools will be a 1 mile moderate trek, it will take about 45 minutes to arrive at the pools. Please bring appropriate footwear (waterproof hiking boots or mud boots), water and snacks.
