Off to the Adirondacks

This week I’ll be going to the Adirondacks with my lab to collect. We will be staying at the Adirondack Ecological Center, which is located in northern New York. I have never been to the Adirondacks and am extremely excited to explore! Last week I went shopping for field pants and boots, because lets face it, sweatpants and converse just won’t do! Now I just have to practice walking in my new hiking boots… wouldn’t want to fall off a mountain on my first Adirondack excursion.
