Trails Softening ~ Bears Out Soon!
This week’s unusually warm temperatures mean muddy trails. It’s best to stay off the trails until they dry out and harden up. An exception is the Quinn Trail at Mink Brook Nature Preserve.
Time to bring in your bird feeders! State biologists expect the bears weren’t fooled by this mild winter any more than we were, and ask that you bring in your bird feeders now, and don’t wait until April 1.
Ray School Trip Is On – No Moonlight Hike
This morning’s unexpected blanket of snow helped us change our minds quickly! Our Ray School Family Snowshoe Hike is ON – meet at the school parking lot at 1pm. Bring snowshoes if you have them; extras may not be available.
The Valley News calendar incorrectly advertised last Saturday’s Slade Brook moonlight hike for tonight. There will be no repeat trip tonight.
NEW! Clean Water Future: A Marketplace
Here’s an innovative Internet-based marketplace that connects landowners in our region with people who appreciate and benefit from services offered by the land. This new site helps individuals and businesses invest in projects that protect or enhance natural services provided by private forest and farmland in the Upper Connecticut River Watershed.
The Hanover Conservancy has posted two projects for investment at Greensboro Ridge Natural Area.
Moonlight Hike at Slade Brook – March 3
Our annual moonlight hike is slated for 5-8pm, to prowl the Slade Brook watershed by the light of the waxing, gibbous moon and then gather around a bonfire. Headlamps and snowshoes are advised; extra snowshoes available. A great trip for families with children 7 and up. Meet at 11 Old Lyme Road. We hope the weather will clear out in time – for questions, call leader Hugh Mellert at 646-3903 (office) or 643-7778.
