Get a closer look at nature during this meander over moderate terrain with some inclines. We will have digital magnifiers and magnifying glasses to take a deeper look at items of interest. The digital magnifiers connect directly to a phone or tablet, and can take photos or videos to be saved on the device. We have a few magnifiers to loan out for the program (while supplies last) and if you like, you will be able to download the free app before the walk. The app for the scopes we will be using is called "Sup Anesok" and works with most IOS or android systems.
