Take a stroll on the WVRT and explore an area accessible from it in Rosendale with Lynn Bowdery. We will look at and discuss whatever catches our attention as we walk. Face masks, hiking shoes, drinking water, binoculars and magnifiers are recommended, and there might be blackflies, mosquitos and ticks. This trip will be limited 10 participants. Pack a lunch for a picnic at the end of the walk, if desired. Please contact Lynn (lynn.bowdery@gmail.com ) to reserve your place and learn where to meet. Rain cancels.
