Alpha Ridge Park–postponed from Monday, Oct 13

October 14 @ 8:00 am - 10:30 am

Central open areas provide good views of the sky. The wet meadow continues to transition into a deciduous floodplain forest as a result of past tree planting, while remnants of an old beaver pond provide a small pool of standing water. Other areas include a stormwater management pond with cattails and some brushy edges.

Limited to 10 people. Register with the leader, Lily Saul, ljsaul604@gmail.com
