B IPOC, LGBTQIA2S+ and Disabled birders are welcome. Families and children welcomed, please rsvp for anyone using binoculars.

Getting there: Head to the end of W Eastman Street behind REI to access the Wile Mile boardwalk. The address is 905 W Eastman St., Chicago, IL 60642. Street parking is extremely limited. Use the CTA with bus routes on Division (#70), North Ave (#72), Halsted (#8), and the North/Clyborn Red line stop.

Accessibility & Terrain: The Wild Mile is a floating, ADA accessible boardwalk. We'll mostly be sitting around the bonfire pits near the entrance, but all are welcome to walk along the river path. There are no restrooms on-site.

Dress: Please dress in weather appropriate clothing and lots of layers including gloves. November evening weather can be very cold and shift quickly so please bear this in mind.
