SUMMARY:Naturalist Field Day: Explore Primm Meadow
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, October 2\nTime: 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.\nLocation: Meet at the Montana Natural History Center. We’ll travel to Primm Meadow in the MNHC bus. \nFeel the majesty of an old-growth\, open stand of ponderosa pines as you explore the history and magnificent ecology of Primm Meadow. This park-like grove has been carefully utilized and managed by humans for thousands of years. Native Americans and homesteaders practiced understory burns to increase productivity of shrubs and crops. The ponderosas thrived in response\, developing a resiliency to larger wildfires. Surrounded by forest that has been logged and replanted or burned\, Primm Meadow is a window back in time. \nSteven Kloetzel\, Western Land Steward for The Nature Conservancy\, will be our guide as we explore this special place. He will discuss restoration work\, fire ecology\, history\, and more. \nDifficulty: Easy/moderate. We will be driving through the gate right to the grove and walking in a loop. We will be walking/standing for up to 2.5 hours. We will have a picnic lunch\, seated on the ground. No bathrooms. \nWhat to Bring: \n\nClothes appropriate for changing Montana weather conditions – layers\, rain\, sun\nBoots or shoes for walking\nWater\nLunch/snacks\nAnything you need to be comfortable outside for hours and on uneven terrain\nBinoculars (optional\, we have some to borrow)\n\nSome scholarships are available.
