Educational Trail Wildlife Survey

MWA’s Education Trail is a great place to celebrate National Trials Day on June 8, 2020!

Over the last two years you might have noticed that our Education Trail has been revitalized; it has been re-cleared, re-routed, and re-blazed. A few new trails have also been created, and soon, you will see the addition of new educational signs. It is no doubt this is the best spot to walk along the Musconetcong River. But, we need your help to make it even better!

The Education Trail is home to many different species of plants and animals, and we would like to better understand who and what they are. We will be using the iNaturalist App to complete this survey. All you need to do is download the App available for free on the App Store or Google Play, create a free account, join our project “Life Along the Musconetcong Education Tail”, and then take a hike along our trail.

While you are out on the trail, be on the lookout for different plants and animals. Using the iNaturalist App and your Smartphones camera, document your observations and upload them to our project. Directions will also be posted at the Education Trail trailhead. This critical information will allow us to better manage our slice of the Musconetcong Watershed.
