Location: Pig’s Eye Chokan Tanka Park, 2165 Pigs Eye Lake Road, St. Paul 55119
Come celebrate the return of Herons at Pigs Eye.
INFORMATION: Bring binoculars, a camera phone, a field guide, a sketch pad & pencil, if you can. We will have loaner binoculars and field guides available. Dress for the weather: hats, mittens, a scarf, and waterproof snow boots are advised. The closest facility is port-a-potty at the nearby Wood Chipper operation.
DIRECTIONS: If you are coming to this park for the first time, please reach out to trip leaders for more detailed instructions. The Warner Road / Childs Lake Road / Pigs Eye Lake Road intersections are a bit challenging. Meet in the parking lot at the far end of the entrance road from the sign Pig’s Eye Chôkan Tanka Park.
REGISTRATION: None
EVENT WILL BE CANCELED IF Blizzard conditions and / or windchill temperatures below -25 are predicted.
DIFFICULTY: We will be walking on a snow-packed trail for a mile in and a mile out. The trail is fairly flat, with slow dip in grade on the approach to and from the concrete bridge over the creek. The trail may be icy depending on weather conditions.
