Come celebrate World Turtle Day with us on the Lower Susquehanna River in York County, PA. With the help of expert guide Howdy Knipp, we will be on the lookout for map turtles that inhabit the river, with a chance to catch hatchlings and some adults to get a closer look at the turtles.
Howdy Knipp is a retired middle-school science teacher who has been involved with the Lake Roland Nature Council since its inception in 2010 and has helped with canoe programs, hikes, and many park projects over the past 15 years.
Our canoes seat 2 adults, so individuals will be paired up with another paddler; if you are not comfortable paddling with a stranger, sign up with a buddy! This paddle is on open water and requires some up-river paddling. This is an intermediate level paddle — some paddling experience is required. Feel free to bring your own binoculars to help sight the turtles and other wildlife.
