Field Trip: Silver Falls State Park Winter Festival
Members of the Willamette Valley Chapter of the NPSO will lead walks to view the conifers and hardwoods of Silver Falls State Park at 11:00 am on both days of the Silver Falls State Park Winter Festival. Other activities will include guided mushroom walks; a class on winter plant propagation; and interactive “discovery tables” about the winter solstice, animal tracks, lichens, bigleaf maple syrup, and winter waterfalls. Visitors can also build bird nest boxes and make wreaths and paper birds. The guided walks will meet in South Falls Lodge courtyard. All activities are free, but a $5 parking permit is required. For more information about the Winter Festival, visit the events calendar at stateparks.oregon.gov or call 503-873-8681.
