- **Event Name**: Sugarloaf Great Backyard Bird Count!
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 15 Feb, 2026 at 09:00 am – Sun, 15 Feb, 2026 at 12:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join Sugarloaf birders and other participants from more than 200 countries in the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC)! Last year, more than 800,000 people helped identify more than 8,000 bird species. We will start with an introduction to the eBird app, which we will use to submit our group checklist. Then we will start birding as we hike ~1.5 mile hike (with ~300’ ascent) looking and listening for birds. We will also talk about using the Merlin app to help identify birds by sound or by photo. At the end, we will submit our bird checklist via eBird. If you are on eBird, we will share it with you so that it shows up on your account as well. If you are interested in using the Merlin app, we highly recommend you install it on your phone along with the bird pack for US: West Coast before you arrive for the hike, as cell service is very spotty or non-existent within the park. During the four days of the GBBC (February 13-16), you can see the map light up with checklists being submitted in real time across the world.

Meet at the White Barn parking lot. There is a reservation fee of $10 per adult, which will be refunded that day on site, unless you choose to donate it. Children under 18 attend for free but must be registered and accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Wear layers (it is likely to be very cold up here), appropriate footwear for muddy/slippery trails, sun protection, bring at least a quart of water, binoculars, and if desired, a snack, a camera, and/or a bird identification guide. We also invite you to bring a reusable drink container so your little ones can enjoy hot cocoa after the walk, if desired. Heavy rains cancel. Parking fees apply. 

Ease of access: The White Barn parking lot has one van-designated parking spot and an accessible porta-potty. The Creekside Nature Trail has two parts to it: its western branch is ADA compliant, while the northeastern branch is a narrow dirt footpath that crosses a narrow cable bridge and heads uphill for an approximate elevation gain of 100ft. It intersects with Hillside Trail, a dirt and gravel fire road. Our route continues uphill on Hillside for approximately another 150 ft of elevation gain up to the former Boy Scout camp and backtracks on Hillside until it reaches the campground. The campground loop is a fairly flat, paved road. Near the bath house, a narrow footbridge connects the campground with the ADA portion of the Creekside Nature Trail back to the White Barn.
