Join us to meet some of our most important native conifers. We will walk about 2 miles around Mud Lake and down to the creek, looking for examples of the diversity of conifers in this ecosystem, including pine, spruce, and fir. We will attend to the habitats of the various evergreen species — why they are, where they are — and look for evidence of their relationships with other plant and animal members of the forest community. We’ll talk about how climate change affects conifers and will learn some identification tips. Registration for most programs begins on the 20th of the month before the event. Registration required. Register Registration is required through Discover Boulder County, Parks & Open Space’s volunteer and event registration system. If you’re new to the system, you'll need to create an account. But it’s easy and we only use your contact information to communicate about events you register for. We will never sell or give your information to a third party.
