With Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge covering over 14,000 acres, there are more than 45 miles of trails to discover! Join us for our Intro to Hiking series as we explore these trails in the winter. If conditions are met, snowshoes will be available. If you want to give snowshoes a try but aren't comfortable using them, we will be putting on Nature Novice: Snowshoe Programming that walks participants through the basics of snowshoeing. Please refer to our website to learn more about Nature Novice. Sign up for reminders and cancellation updates. Date and Time: Sunday, February 9th from 1:00-3:00 pm
