The BioBlitz the DCC will be holding on Saturday, September 21, from 9am-12 noon at the Forest Lake State Park Forest.

We have a project page set up on the iNaturalist website, linked below, which you will need to “join” as a participant, and the app will upload and collect the data you record in the park during the hike.  This will be of benefit to the DCC as we continue to identify species within Dalton.

You’ll need to have downloaded the app beforehand, and I suggest practicing at home before the BioBlitz.  I was thinking we could practice at our next meeting, but since we have a speaker, I do not think that is practical.

It’s an easy hike along the snowmobile trail, and it’s always fun to visit with friends during the hike, feel free to invite whomever you’d like.  Folks can obviously turn around and end their hike when and if needed.

We will meet up in the parking lot of the state park as the gates will be open to the park until the end of the month, so there’s plenty of parking.

Dress appropriately and bring water. I hope you can make it!
