On Tuesday, May 21st at 10:30am, Guilford Cares invites area seniors to gather at the West River Trail in Brattleboro for a guided tour with forester Lynn Levine. Lynn has been a consulting forester, environmental educator and naturalist. She was the first woman forester in the Northeast.
The one hour guided walk with Lynn will give you an inside look at this historic West River Trail. Over 130 years ago, a railway traveled this path between Black Mountain and the West River. Lynn will be pointing out the wide spectrum of plants, trees, rocks and wildflowers along the trail. The guided walk may have uneven/unlevel terrain, variable ground conditions, with easy hiking. Unless there is hazardous conditions, this program will occur rain or shine. Access the trail 400 yards down from the Marina Restaurant in Brattleboro at the kiosk next to the parking lot that starts the trail.
Levine has co-authored: Working with Your Woodland: A Landowner's Guide and Mammal Tracks and Scat: Life Size-Tracking Guide. She is the author of: Mammal Tracks and Scat: Life-Size Pocket Guide, Snow Secrets, Is it Time, Yet? and Common Ferns of the Northeast, the Winner of the 2019 Informational Nonfiction Book Award. She will bring and sign books for purchase.
