Winter on Snowshoes. Snow transforms the landscape into stories that  
unfold as we follow tracks of foxes, mice, and other mammals. A  
Snowshoe Hare hops along and is pounced on by a Great Horned Owl.  
Without snow to show us the tracks, wing marks, and perhaps a drop of  
blood, we would not have known the drama took place. Soren Bondrup- 
Nielsen (902) 582-3971 will lead this hike on snowshoes or skis, and  
we will explore the properties of snow (its insulative value, for  
example). By studying the characteristic imprints made by different  
organisms we will interpret the various stories that have unfolde
