By special invitation we presented our On The Trail course to the Association of Adult Learners in Alpena, Michigan on July 8th, 2015. Great group and the program seemed to be well received. It is the middle segment of our Safe in the Woods course and covers how to read trail markings, what to do in 'critter' encounters and other aspects of being "on the trail."
If you have any interest in a similar presentation for your group, please let us know. Obviously we will travel for the right incentives including travel and lodging. Michigan is a long way from Cortland, NY but it all worked out for a great trip.

Sunday, July 5th, 2015 - An outing and a Picnic
Shorts Hikes - Labrador Hollow and Tinkers Falls - And a Picnic
CHANGE- to
Labrador Hollow Unique Area
Route 91 and Labrador Crossroads Road, Apulia, NY,Apulia, NY (edit map)- Join naturalist and author Roger Fulton on a couple of short and relatively easy nature hikes. We will initially meet at the Labrador Hollow Unique Area at 3 pm and take a .5 mile stroll along the flat composite boardwalk out into the unique ecological area adjacent to Labrador Pond. This area contains unique vegetation, and we will explain why.
After that we will make our way on foot or by carpool up to the short Tinkers Falls Trail to a very pretty waterfall. That one is a little more demanding, but if you are in reasonable shape it should be no problem. Good footwear is recommended. Y'all might also bring some bug spray and water.
Then we shall return to the Boardwalk area for a picnic dinner. Bring a sub and anything else you want for a self-contained picnic dinner with friends. We don't supply anything on this outing except some knowledge and friendship.
Sorry, no dogs or young children on this outing. For a reservation contact Roger via email at: Roger@RogerFulton.com.
