Some such locations include the Silver Lake Fen, Freda Huffier Kettlehole, Ocheyedan Mound State Preserve, and Cayler Prairie. “It’ll be a fun program and good way to spend time outdoors,” Hansen said. RYLAN HOWE | STAFF WRITER EXPLORE T H E G R E A T OUTDOORS Hike the Wild set to visit Elinor Bedell State Park The great outdoors is there for everyone to enjoy during every season. And yes, that includes winter. One of the goals of the next Hike the Wild program is to show everyone that winter is just as good a time as any to get outside and enjoy nature. This time around hikers will visit Elinor Bedell State Park, and weather permitting, don pairs of snowshoes for an informative stroll around the park on eastern shore of East Lake Okoboji. “Just because it’s cold and snowy doesn’t mean we can’t get outside,” said naturalist Ashley Hansen. “We’re crossing our fingers that there is good snow, but even if it’s slushy and melted we’ll still go and just wear our boots for hiking instead.” The hike is from 9:30-11:30 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 27, and those who attend will meet at the Dickinson County Nature Center before heading to the state park. Once out there, they’ll strap on the snowshoes, or boots, depending on the weather, and check out all there is to see and hear. “I went snowshoeing our there last weekend to map out a route and may go back again to focus on plant and tree identification,” Hansen said. “We’ll talk about the trees and plants you find out there. I know some of the plants have berries you can eat so maybe we’ll talk about edible plants.” In addition to the flora, like burr oaks and raspberries, Hansen will discuss the fauna in the park with her fellow hikers. “We’ll talk about some of the birds. A kingfisher actually lives out there, so maybe we’ll hear or see him,” Hansen said. Relatively new to the area, Hansen looks forwarded to helping lead the Hike the Wild series this year. “I’m excited to see some places I haven’t been before and to meet people with similar interests,” Hansen said. “This program attracts people that want to be outside and I’m excited to teach them about the natural history of the area. It will be a lot of fun.” For this particular hike, Hansen just I’m excited to see some places I haven’t been before and to meet people with similar interests. This program attracts people that want to be outside and I’m excited to teach them about the natural history of the area. It will be a lot of fun. Ashley Hansen hopes the snow sticks around. “I’m hoping that snowshoeing is something different that will get people interested in getting outside. Even if it’s a little cold it will still be fun to do. It’s fun and good exercise too,” Hansen said. During a time of year most people stay cooped up waiting for spring, Hike the Wild aims to inspire folks get some fresh winter air at Elinor Bedell State Park. F Okoboji | Iowa
