About the event
Do you have trouble telling one conifer from another? Here’s a chance to learn to identify both our native and common nonnative conifers. We’ll begin in the cabin, learning important features of each conifer then head out on the Ridges Sanctuary trails to practice identifying various species. By the end of the hike, you will be able to distinguish black from white spruce, balsam from hemlock, red from white pine and more. The hike will be a leisurely two miles. Hand lenses will be supplied or bring your own. Wear shoes appropriate for hiking. Suitable for ages 16 and up.
