FIELD TRIP IS FULL. Join butterfly enthusiast Dean Hansen on a day-long trip to look for spring butterflies in the jack pine/oak barrens in northwest Wisconsin’s Burnett County. The trip will start at the Visitor’s center at the Crex Meadows Wildlife Area just north of Grantsburg, WI, and end up on the Namekagon Barrens in far northwest Burnett County.

This hike is a unique opportunity to observe the “before” scene of a first-time bison introduction at Cedar Creek Reserve. Barb Delaney, Professional Plant Ecologist and Botanist, will describe plant micro-habitats within the bison enclosure area before the beasts arrive!
