Mountain mycology - MRS guided walk

Join a naturalist for a guided walk around the campus of the Mountain Research Station (MRS). Ph.D. student Candice Perrotta will lead us on a fungi foray in the subalpine forest. Explore seasonal wetlands and learn about the mushrooms of the Colorado mountains.

 

The walk starts at 10:00 am and will last for about 2 hours. We only have space for 20 people. Sign up is required to reserve your spot. Additional details will be emailed to attendees one week prior to the walk.
