Join Alpine Beer Company and the Back Country Land Trust for a guided walking tour of Wright’s Field followed by a tasty brew back at the Alpine Beer Company Tasting Room or The Pub!
About the guided hike:
5/19 – Birding & Photography Workshop
We’ll be birding through Wright’s Field, from the native grasslands to the riparian habitat along Alpine Creek. Docents will provide binoculars for those that don’t have their own, and we’ll have a camera with a telephoto lens set up on a tripod to show you how to capture images of birds you find. Call it birding for beginner’s, or a lesson in nature photography. Bring your own camera and tripod, or share ours. We’ll be looking for songbirds, roadrunners, and raptors. If we’re lucky we’ll see a burrowing owl or an American kestrel!
Proceeds from the hike will directly benefit our local non- profit, Back Country Land Trust and include your first beer at Alpine Tasting Room or Pub.
*Alpine Beer Company Tasting Room will be opening early to accommodate thirsty hikers.
* Pub seating is first come first serve or reservation will be needed.
* By purchasing these tickets you agree that your email will be shared with Back Country Land Trust.
