HUBBARD LAKE- Huron Pines is hosting a guided winter walk Feb. 17 from 10 a.m. to noon at the Hubbard Lake Nature Preserve.
The family-friendly event will start with a brief welcome and introduction. Over the course of the hour long hike, participants will learn about the history, geology, ecology and ongoing management activities taking place at the preserve.
Participants should bring their own water and snacks and be dressed for the weather. Trails are hilly and steep in places. Trekking poles or walking sticks are encouraged and sturdy boots are recommended. Restrooms are available. Leashed, well-mannered pets are welcome.
