Take a Winter Walk in Ulster County to Learn How to ID Trees
Next Tuesday (January 12, 2021) the weather looks like a perfect day for a winter walk through the woods. If you are looking to spend an hour outdoors learning about the trees that make-up our Hudson Valley forests then you can't miss the Winter Tree ID walk at the Mohonk Preserve. Yes, I am an avid tree lover, some might even say tree hugger which is why I would find this walk so fascinating.
Everyone ages 8 to 88 are invite to come enjoy a guided tour through the woods to learn how to identify our local trees when their leave are gone and the only thing to help you is the bark. I personally have trouble identifying trees even when the leaves are in bloom. I can usually spot a Maple or an Oak and of course a pine tree is pretty obvious but don't ask me what kind of pine tree.
