“Chasing Spring on the Pacific Crest Trail”
May 15 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Back by popular demand – “Chasing Spring on the Pacific Crest Trail” Wednesday, May 15, at 7pm in the Coso Room.
In 2016 Bob and Susan Steele thru-hiked the 2,650 mile-long Pacific Crest Trail with a different goal than anyone else – counting all the birds. Their trek passed through magnificent scenery, diverse habitats, and afforded the chance to see birds moving northbound, from spring migration to summer breeding.
With stunning photography and storytelling, this evening presentation with guest speaker Bob Steele will take you along the mountainous spine of the West Coast, winding from Mexico to Canada with a keen eye toward natural history, flowers and birds. Share in the joy and challenge of backpacking 140 days on one of the most famous trails in the Western Hemisphere, and glimpse some of the 200 species of birds and many flowers found along the way.
This presentation is free and open to the public. Donations are appreciated
