AUGUSTA – The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife is hosting a free wildlife walk at 8:30 a.m. Monday, Aug. 15, at Mount Pisgah Conservation Area, in Winthrop.
The property is owned by the town of Winthrop and protected with an easement held by Kennebec Land Trust. The forested summit of Mount Pisgah features the former Maine Forest Service fire tower, which was in use from 1949 to 1991. The tower provides 360-degree views. On a clear day you can see Mount Washington to the west and the Camden Hills to the east.
Participants will also be encouraged to explore the forest and look for signs of small mammals, songbirds and invertebrates.
The moderate walk is approximately a 2-mile roundtrip. While it is free, registration is encouraged by clicking here.
