Description
Spring Equinox Hike 2019
Come celebrate the annual Spring Equinox Hike!
In the Guide to Hiking the North Country Trail in Minnesota Bob La Fluer writes, "Four equal divisions of the seasons isn't the way it works in the north country. Instead, spring doesn't arrive for a month or more after it's expected."
The equinox is coming, the sun is higher in the sky and days are getting longer. Snow will melt, migrating birds will return and spring flowers will appear.
