Join us on Guided Paddle!
Join ACLC staff for a paddling tour of an Adirondack lake to visit with some of our study loons. In a small group setting you will learn about the lives of loons that travel to the Adirondacks each year to nest and raise their young. We will discuss some of the conservation concerns that affect these beautiful birds and the aquatic ecosystems they depend on.
