Winter Tree Identification Walk

With winter fast approaching, join Hirundo on the trail to build or refresh your winter tree identification skills!

As the remaining leaves make their way to the forest floor, branches, bark, and buds become more visible. Join our Program Coordinator, a Maine licensed forester, for this walk along Hirundo's trails as we explore the species of trees present and practice their winter identification. Location : 1107 West Old Town Road, Old Town ME (Hirundo Wildlife Refuge Gate 1) Bathrooms : There are two pit toilets available at the Gate 1 trails, one has an ADA ramp, but may be difficult to access with any snowpack. There is no running water or lights. Hiking/Trail Conditions : Most of the trails have minimal elevation changes. These trails may be wet and muddy at times. Expect rooted and rocky trails along the way. How to prepare : This event will be entirely outdoors - so dress accordingly. Wear layers and prepare for the cold weather and possibility of ice and snow. Pack a snack and some water too! Questions? Email: [email protected]
