Join Sue Bryan for a winter hike to Caldwell Lake Nature Reserve on the Lake Superior shore. Look for winter birds, mammal tracks and sign in the snow, possibly very early signs of spring. Snowshoes are required. Bring a hearty lunch, water, and dress appropriately for the winter conditions considering level of physical exertion, wind and temperature. The hike into the site along a rough forest trail is about 1.5 hours. Depending on snow conditions it could represent a high level of physical exertion. If ice conditions on Lake Superior are suitable we may hike in through the forest on the trail but return along the Superior shoreline on the frozen lake. We hope to stop for an outdoor hot coffee or tea and eat lunches outdoors at the Bryan cabin on the Superior shore (half way mark in the total hike).

Please notify Susan Bryan at 807-345-6446 or bryan@tbaytel.net of your intent to participate or with questions.
