Chasing Dragonflies

Jun 11, 2023, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm | Free | Tettegouche State Park

Event Navigation

Join Tettegouche State Park Naturalist Kurt Mead for a short talk about dragonflies and then a day in the field, chasing and identifying these charismatic microfauna. There will be a carpool up towards Isabella, Minnesota to visit a variety of habitats to see what’s flying. Nets will be available from the park. Come prepared to walk in wet environments. Some sites will take a moderate amount of effort to get in and out of. Expect uneven footing as we will not be spending much time on trails. Pack a lunch, snacks, bug spray, sunscreen, and anything else that you need for a fun day afield.

Gather inside the Visitor Center for an introduction to dragonflies and trip logistics, including figuring out who is riding with whom. For more information, contact Kurt Mead at 218-353-8809 or by email at [email protected].
Parking in the parking lot at the Visitor Center does NOT require a state park permit.
