LA TRAILS GOES SNOWSHOEING FOR WINTER FESTIVAL
Public is invited to a guided exploration of local open spaces and conservation land
LA Trails, the urban trails program of the Androscoggin Land Trust, will host a snowshoe hike at the Sherwood Forest Conservation Area on Saturday, February 17. Stephen Reed, local LA Trails volunteer, will lead participants of all ages along all-season trails with mild gradients. There will be hiking regardless of the weather or amount of snow, and it will last approximately two hours, depending on the ability level and desire of the participants.
Participants will meet at the end of 19th Street in New Auburn at 10am. Parking is along Sherwood Heights Drive. Please bring your own snowshoes and dress appropriately for the weather.
