North Woods, Great Lakes Course Master Naturalist Course
Become a Master Naturalist with Hawk Ridge this spring or summer! Courses coming up!
Two options available to take the North Woods, Great Lakes Master Naturalist Course with Hawk Ridge this spring into summer. Learn about the birds and so much more!
Explore the wonders of the North Woods as winter changes to spring with Hawk Ridge. Lots of things are happening at this point in the year, including spring migration! Starting Mar.1 we will explore the fascinating geology, plant and animal communities, inland lakes and bogs, ecology and human interactions of the North Woods, as well as how Lake Superior impacts and interacts with these ecosystems. The course will be based at Hartley Nature Center in Duluth, Minnesota, and we will visit many other amazing places in the area. Course runs Mar. 1, 15, and 29, Apr. 12, and May 3.
Or if you would rather have a great North Shore intensive course- join us at North House Folk School in Grand Marais from May 30-June 3 for 5 packed days of field experiences to explore a variety of area plant and animal communities, amazing geology, and Lake Superior, while also investigating human interactions in these ecosystems. Situated on the Grand Marais Harbor, North House offers an exceptional launching place for learning about the Northwoods and Lake Superior.
