Join Chapter member, Doc Bayne, and the Friends of Sterling Forest explore the life of beavers in the winter on Sunday Feb. 10 at 1pm. We will walk to a large pond in the deep woods created by the beavers.  If there is ice, we will walk across the pond to see the dam. Please wear boots and if you have crampons please bring them. This will be about a 3-mile hike.
