After a winter of seemingly holding its breath, the forest is ready to exhale. On this International Day of Forests, join a park ranger on a one-mile walk over moderately difficult terrain with some short inclines to see nature come alive. Which species of trees are the first to bloom? Who else is rising to greet the earliest pollinators? Is the forest making plans for the summer? It is time to get your feet, and the sap, moving.
