Early Spring Vernal Pools Hike

Join Lacawac Sanctuary and nature enthusiast Dave Cummins for an early-spring guided hike along the Ledges Trail! As the snow begins to melt, we’ll explore the Sanctuary’s vernal pools—temporary forest wetlands that come alive this time of year with emerging plant growth and the earliest stirrings of amphibians. This 90–120 minute, intermediate-level hike offers beautiful views, seasonal discoveries, and a chance to learn about the unique ecology of these fleeting spring habitats.

Meet at the Lacawac Sanctuary Environmental Center by Heron Pond at 10am on Saturday, March 21, 2026 to start our early spring hike!
