Shasta Environmental Alliance (SEA) will be leading a COVID-safe early-fall-colors and plant identification walk through a Carr Fire burn area, on Saturday morning, October 10, 2020. This will be a good time to review all of the plant names you may have forgotten! Walk leader and Shasta Chapter CNPS Conservation Chair David Ledger will identify various plants along the trail by noting their specific characteristics, and explain their adaptations to fire. We will also observe the hits and misses of a restoration project in the burn area.

This will be a two-mile walk lasting about 90 minutes. To make this safe for everyone, participants will be required to wear masks over nose and mouth—no bandanas, face shields, or masks hanging off one ear! (Attendees who maintain 10 or more feet distance can remove their masks.) Limited to 10 people, including walk leader. To reserve one of nine spaces, email David Ledger at dledger@sbcglobal.net. -David Ledger
