Cheryl Cox, retired geologist and science educator lead the walk and discussion. During the visit we learned about the site’s formation and the glacial history of the area. The walk started at the sand and gravel pits with a view the Gorge from below, then walked up to the dam at the top of the Gorge.

The Cavendish Branch of the Mount Ascutney Audubon Society will host its popular annual Bird Walk. Ken Cox will be our guide this year. He has a degree in fisheries biology and is a life long birder who has birded extensively over the years in the Northeast, Southeast and Southwest regions of the United States. He has also volunteered as a citizen scientist for the Vermont Center for Ecological Studies and the Audubon Society.
The walk started at 731 Stevens Road in Cavendish off Greenbush Road, and went through a wooded area and open fields. It was a moderate hike enjoyed by all.
