Lake Clear Field Trip

Join us for a 3- hour guided paddle on Lake Clear to observe the loons that are congregating there prior to migration! In a small group setting conducive to social distancing, we will learn about the fascinating lives of loons that travel to the Adirondacks each year to nest and raise their young, as well as the conservation concerns that affect loons and the aquatic ecosystems where they live.

$50 donation per person requested. Special rate for ACLC donors and groups of 4 or more. Email loon-store@adkloon.org for details.

Check out our Adirondack Loon Celebration after the paddle!
