NYQUIST-HARCOURT WILDLIFE SANCTUARY WINTER WALK
February 11, 2017 @ 3:00 am - 7:00 am
We will walk or snowshoe (depending on snow depth) through the sanctuary, along the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail and possibly other areas in and around New Paltz. We will look for winter birds and animal tracks and sign. The walk will not be focused on particular target species, but rather general study and enjoyment of nature in winter. Meet at the municipal parking lot on Huguenot Street just east of the Wallkill River at 8:00 a.m. Contact trip leader Matt Corsaro for more details (mattcorsaro@yahoo.com or 256-9839)
