Yesterday, the Outdoor Leadership Training Center took future LandSea leaders and community members out to the Arb for wilderness medicine scenarios. Back boarding, wound care, and mini-searches on our trails help prepare students for (almost) anything that could happen in the backcountry. We love our outdoor classroom! 🩺🩹🏕️ And don’t worry, no CPR dummies were harmed or dropped along the way!

The trails are reopened! Thanks again for steering clear of Not-So-Mag and a section of the Powerline. brought seven sheep for the third year of a prescribed grazing project, and thanks to Not-So-Mag is re-opened! We always love spending time with the sheep - see if you can find the graze plots on your next hike! 🐑

April showers bring spring… Garlic Mustard! As you enjoy the Arb trails, keep your eyes peeled for this quick-spreading non-native. Pull from the base of the stem to remove the roots, toss the plant into trash bags or the labeled bins on trail, or bring it home to experiment with this edible invasive. Thanks for helping native plants thrive!

Good morning! Lots of trees down at the Arb today after last night’s storm, be careful out on the trails and be prepared to turn around or carefully go around fallen branches. We are working on clearing it all up!

How nice to see a blue sky over the Powerline! Throw on some boots and enjoy the winter rays ☀️❄️🧤
