Amazing Amphibians @ The Mount

Spotted salamanders and wood frogs spend their days under logs, stones, and other forest-floor objects, venturing out only on cool, moist evenings. Venture into woods and wetlands to search with your family for these fascinating nocturnal animals.

Children must be accompanied by an adult. Dress for the weather with long pants, long sleeves, and boots. If you want extra illumination in the dark, bring a flashlight–ideally one with a red light or covered in a red cloth to avoid removing the group’s natural night vision, if possible. This program will cover up to a mile of unsurfaced trail. Trails are level or gradually sloping. Some sections of trail may be uneven or slippery and may have obstacles such as exposed tree roots or rocks. This is a program designed for families with children. Each registration requires at least one adult and one child.

For Families—Children 5-17
