Duckabush Outing

duckabush-1On October 13, 2016, the Natural History Society joined for an autumn hike on the Jefferson Land Trust property along the Duckabush River. It was an easy hike over uneven terrain.

The Duckabush River provides spawning and rearing habitat for trout and salmon of several species. Many large and small mammals and birds inhabit this rich forest, such as elk, beaver, owls, dippers, ducks, and woodpeckers.
