Join Coastal Mountains Land Trust for the first workshop of a two-part tracking series, Saturday, Jan. 17, from 10 a.m. - 12 p.m., at the Fernalds Neck Preserve in Lincolnville. 

This hiking excursion is being led by expert tracker Meg Selkie, who has extensive experience guiding participants in understanding who has been inhabiting the forest, what food sources they have been relying on and how recently they left behind their “sign”, according to CMLT, in a news release.  

"A Coastal Mountains Land Trust staff member will be present during the workshop to do tracking activities and games with younger trackers, so feel free to bring the kids," said CMLT.

Contact leaht@coastalmountains.org to register. 

Directions: From Lincolnville Center, take Route 52 south for 2 miles, then turn right at Fernalds Neck Road. Follow to its end, staying left at the fork. From Camden, take Route 52/Mountain Street north for 5.8 miles, turning left at Fernalds Neck Road. Please drive slowly.

Join the group on Sunday, Feb. 22, at 10 a.m., for the second tracking workshop of the series at the Head of Tide Preserve in Belfast. It is not necessary to attend the first workshop.
