Jon and Marty will facilitate a deeper and richer awareness of tracks, sign, and connection with wildlife along the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers. We will have a series of tracking stations and opportunities to ask questions and deepen our understanding of track and sign, gaits, and appreciation for how animals think and move through a landscape.

Come join us for a morning of nature connection. You are invited to bring a bag lunch and beverage as we will have a an opportunity to regroup before sharing our stories and insights from the morning's sessions. This is an all-weather event. Dress warm and be prepared for a short hike and several hours outdoors.

We will gather at 9:00 in the fireplace room in the Visitor Center. We will head out on the trail about 9:20. If need to reach us the day of the outing, please call Jon's cell phone at 612-388-4700.
