An important way we work to build support for public lands is by helping people get out to learn about and enjoy the wildlands of the Inyo Region. Each year we lead dozens of trips if this sort, outings that range from a half day walk around Convict Lake (May 2007) to multi day backpacking trips, and everything in between. Our programs include:
- Generally part day outings with a focus on learning about the unique natural history of a particular area. Some of our favorites are walks in the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest, Marble Canyon in the White Mountains, and birding around Convict Lake.
We have a variety of programs that we have delivered to a variety of audiences over the past few years. These include slideshows and talks on public lands, the Sierra, the Inyo region, and more.
-We lead many stewardship programs as well. There is a large focus on these in building skills and empowering people to contribute to managing their public lands.
There are many other ways to get out and experience public land. We are building a library of descriptions of our favorite off-the-beaten-path outings. We call it "Get Out!" Also, make sure to check out some of the Wilderness Study Areas in Inyo and Mono Counties.
