PGNC Caribou Viewing Field Trip, Members Only, Saturday November 16, 8:30 a.m.
Join us this year for a caribou viewing adventure. We will have a researcher, Lauren, with us explaining the project happening at the site and give us some background information on caribou. This trip is open to members ONLY, on a first-come, first-served basis and has an attendance cap, so registration is essential if you would like to attend. If you would like to come, but are not yet a member, you can find out how at https://pgnc.wordpress.com/membership/
When registering, please indicate whether or not you can drive for carpooling (if so, I will have additional questions.) Please note that this trip will be at least 6-8 hours in length and we will be travelling northwest of PG (about 165km). This year, there will be the option to meet-up with us in the Hart. Please let me know if you would like to do that and I can provide more details.
Please bring a snack if you need one and dress appropriately for the weather. The weather up there is super unpredictable and we don’t expect anything less this year.
Lastly, be prepared to be educated and in awe of these majestic creatures (message from Angelina Joiner)
