Winter is a wonderful time to learn more about the animals that wander Stowe’s woods. Animals leave clues in the forest about their daily activities in the form of tracks in the snow and markings on trees, among other sign.
Join us as we visit a variety of habitats to discover tracks and signs. You’ll learn how to read the clues that animals reveal about their habits and habitats and learn why certain types of habitats are so worthy of protection.
Morse is a highly regarded expert in natural history and tracking. In 1995, Morse founded Keeping Track©, an organization devoted to training professional biologists, citizens and volunteers in wildlife monitoring skills. Morse has nearly 40 years of experience interpreting wildlife habitat use. Her research has focused on cougar, bobcat, black bear, and Canada lynx.
We will spend the afternoon outside, moving at a leisurely pace. Be sure to dress warmly, bring a hot drink, extra snacks and snowshoes. Please follow Barnes Hill Rd to the end and park alongside the road.
