Winter Tracking & Animal Signs*

Animals leave behind a number of clues for us to find as we explore our winter world. We’ll hunt for animal track clues outside in the snow or mud and create our own tracks! *Snowshoe use is weather and trail condition dependent. A trail hike will replace snowshoeing if snow cover is not adequate. Adult rental is $ 3/pair, or bring your own.

--Options available 10 a.m. or 3 p.m.
--$4 per student (free for adults and young siblings under age 3)
--Maximum of 20-30 paid registrants (program dependent)
--Ages: Elementary students
--Register online at least one day prior to program (no walk-ins please)
