    Name: Wetlands, Wildflowers, Wildlife and Kayaks
    Date: August 4, 2018
    Event Description:
    At the heart of LTC’s Pigeon River Wildlife Nature Preserve is a wetland complex that is the source of life to many wild creatures. In this remote area the silence is inspiring and the connection to the wild land intimate. Join LTC’s Derek Shiels on a kayak paddling trip up a tributary to the Pigeon River. We won’t go far; this is a float to observe the wildflowers, the silence, and maybe some of the wildlife that thrive in Pigeon River country. Registrants must provide their own kayak, paddle and PFD. Kayak rentals are available through Ryde Marine of Alanson, The Outfitter in Harbor Springs, or BrassWind Landing in Indian River. Group size is limited. High clearance vehicles mandatory to get down the long dirt two-track. Limited to four vehicles or 12 participants. Please contact Derek Shiels at 231-347-0991 or Derek@landtrust.org.
    Location:
    Pigeon River Wildlife Nature Preserve, Cheboygan County

    Guided Bicycle Trail Ride

     

    Ride the North Central State Trail to the Barbara 

    Hoffius Preserve and Back

     

     

    Hoffius Preserve Bicycle Ride Tour

    By Cheboygan Trails Council

     

    Beginning at  8;30 am at Festival Square Jim Conboy  will lead a bike ride north on the North Central State Trail  to and back from the Hoffius Preserve just off US 23. The total round trip  distance is 15 1/2 miles. A volunteer will sweep to make sure no one is left behind. Once at the Preserve bikes will be left at the entrance,  with a volunteer,  and riders will  walk about 1/2 mile down  to the shore of Lake Huron where the beauty of the Lake can be appreciated. Total time 2 3/4 to 3hours. 

     

    While the trail is flat, riders should be prepared to ride the distance comfortably.  It is not a ride for young children. Since the path to the shore of Lake Huron includes steps and uneven ground, comfortable walking shoes are advised. Helmets are encouraged.

     

    It would be appreciated if you would sign up for the ride though that is not required to participate.
