Lake Colby Field Trip

  • Little Clear Pond Launch Fish Hatchery Rd Saranac Lake, NY, 12983 United States (map)

Join us for a 2- hour guided paddle on Lake Colby to learn about the loons that live there! This special event is offered as part of the Celebrate Paddling Festival.

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.

A donation of $35/person is requested.

This field trip is limited to 10 participants only - Register soon!

Raindate will be June 26, 2022.

We look forward to paddling with you soon!
