We’re cancelling for a number of reasons. The walkways are in terrible condition, varying from deep snow to icy paths. Weather looks iffy for Saturday. Also, two of the leaders are unavailble.

We are considering finding a day later in March for a last-of-season trip to Deer Island. If we do, we’ll post it and announce it as widely as we can.

We will search for wintering seabirds, alcids, and Iceland Gulls. Be prepared for cold and wind and dress very warmly. Depending on conditions, we will walk up to 2.6 miles on paved paths. Port-a-potties available midway. Beginners welcome and encouraged. Bad weather or poor walking conditions may cancel – email trip leaders if you are unsure.

The start time is timed to the tides.

Leaving early is possible if you can’t be there for the whole time. You would head back before we get to the halfway point.
