Eagle River, WI — Take a guided canoe trip over pristine waters with a Trees For Tomorrow naturalist. On Wednesday, August 22, Troy Walters will share his knowledge of the plants and birds that thrive in the aquatic environment as he leads the group.

“There are so many unique aquatic plants that live in the waters of the Northwoods,” said Walters. “August is a great time to see many of the plants in bloom. In addition to the aquatic plants, I expect to see water fowl, eagles and osprey.”

The trip will leave from Trees For Tomorrow at 8 a.m. and will return about 4 p.m. Canoes, paddles, life vests and transportation to the launch site will be provided, but participants are asked to bring their own lunch and beverages.
