Keweenaw Land Trust - Voice for protection of land and water in the Western Upper Peninsula

Come to this KLT site near Hancock to learn how to identify animal tracks and signs large and small. Trip leader Brian Rajdl, biology teacher at Hancock High School, will teach about native-style tracking and tracking for science. He can even teach you how to tell a buck from a doe! We will also do snow casting of tracks. Wear very warm clothes, winter boots and snowpants, and bring snowshoes if you have them.

We will meet at the Paavola parking area on the left side of No. 9 Road, east of US 41, just north of Quincy Hill near Hancock. The outing is free, with donations to KLT welcome. Space is limited. To reserve a place, e-mail elillesk@mtu.edu with the subject “Animal tracking” and in the message list the names of the participants and any questions. If you can't e-mail call 483-0104. We will contact you by e-mail or phone if there is a cancellation or a need to reschedule.
