The Skagit River Bald Eagle Awareness Team provides education about the Skagit River ecosystem and the eagles that visit the region. December-January, the Center offers guided nature hikes every weekend. The nature hikes follow the Sauk-Skagit Reach trail in Howard Miller Steelhead Park. These interpretive walks focus on eagles, salmon, and their interconnected relationships within the Skagit River watershed. The walks last from 1.5 to 2 hours and travel along a flat. well-maintained trail. The trail leads into the rainforest, crosses a bridge over a wetland and ends along the Skagit River. No dogs! Be sure to dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes. There will likely be snow on the trail! Free and open to the public; donations gratefully accepted. Be aware that things can change (weather conditions and state restrictions) so stay informed. Before you head out, get updates on their website and Facebook page.
