Birds of the Lost Coast Hike

Sanctuary Forest invites you to a Birds of the Lost Coast Hike on Saturday, May 18th in the headwaters of the Mattole. Long-time birders Alan Ridley and Helen McKenna will introduce you to meadow, shore, and forest birds, and talk about their nesting and parenting habits. This is an easy trek through the redwoods and meadows of the upper Mattole and the Sinkyone coast, with one section of uphill walking.

Meet at 9:00am at the Sanctuary Forest office, located in the Whitethorn Construction Yard along Shelter Cover Road, and will be finished by 2:30pm. Please bring binoculars, lunch and water. A four-wheel drive vehicle with high clearance would be helpful with carpooling. The hike is free of charge, though donations are gladly accepted and help us to offer this program year after year. Advance sign-ups are not necessary. If you have questions or are unsure where to meet, contact Marisa at [email protected], or call 986-1087
