Enhance your ability to observe and correctly interpret the subtle signs that our elusive wildlife species leave behind in the absence of snow. Participants will build upon skills developed in our introductory winter Animal Track & Sign Clinic to recognize animals by track, scat, feeding behavior, gait pattern, habitat selection, marking behavior, and other sign in the summer landscape. The $250 course fee includes lectures, guided field sessions, and transportation around the valley. Lodging at the homestead is available upon request for a small additional fee. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Comments from previous workshop participants: <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>”The class was not only informative but an entertaining adventure as well.” <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>“It’s education at its finest: highly knowledgeable instructors leading a well-designed, hands-on course that inspires students to continue their learning of the subject even after the course ends.”<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Space is limited.
