About this event

  • 5 hours

Join Brett Engstrom, local ecologist, and Northeast Wilderness Trust for a venture on the Woodbury Mountain Wilderness Preserve. We will spend most of our time getting to know a small piece of this wilderness area, investigating species interactions, thinking of the processes of land formation and hydrology, and tying it all back to the important mission of conserving forever wild places. While immersed in the landscape, we will spend time listening to the sounds of the forest, identifying different species, and take time to slow down and connect with the outside world. Please wear footwear for tromping through the woods in possibly steep terrain, be prepared for a 2–3-mile hike, prepare for the weather of the day, and bring lunch and plenty of water. Be prepared for the possibility of bugs, bring bug spray or a head net if you have one.

Organized by

Since 2002, Northeast Wilderness Trust has helped to conserve more than 78,000-acres of forever-wild landscapes for nature and people across New England and northern New York.
