Creatures of Little Lagoon

Let’s see what organisms we can discover in Little Lagoon’s water by pulling a seine net. Refuge volunteers will demonstrate and then give you an opportunity to pull the net too! Participants who wish to pull the net should come prepared to get waist-deep in water. Wear old clothes and closed-toe shoes that can get wet. Need to stay dry? No problem, come and observe the organisms we catch. Meet at Jeff Friend Trailhead, then we will walk 0.5 miles to the seining site. Bring towels, sunglasses and water. 

Meet at the Jeff Friend Trailhead

The walks last 1-2 hours and meet at the designated location. Please provide at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations.
Note that there are no restrooms on the trails, except for Chan West Pine Beach Trail, which has a pit toilet about 1 mile
from the start.


Note: Some walks will take place while the office is closed. We suggest supportive footwear, water, hats, sunscreen, and bug spray.

**In case of rain, walks will be cancelled or postponed.**
