Winter Bird Walk
Saturday, January 18th, 2025
Check in Begins: 8:30 AM
Event Start Time: 9:00 AM
The changing seasons impact which bird species make the Cleveland National Forest their home every Winter. Whether you are a frequent birder, or simply interested in learning about our local bird species, this will be an exciting experience for the whole family as we walk the meadows of the Skyline Trail. Please note that there is no guarantee of wild animal sightings.
This hike will be about 3 miles in length and mainly flat with some elevation gain. Please note that inclement weather might postpone/cancel our hike and wildlife sightings are not guaranteed. Park Rangers will provide guidance if any hazardous conditions are encountered, and please note that slippery conditions may exist.
Young hikers (5+) are welcome to participate with their parents. The pace of the hike will be determined by the participants, please plan to be out on the trails with us for at least two hours. Due to the group environment, please leave your furry friends at home.
Please bring:
Your own water bottle
Sunscreen
Hike appropriate attire: a hat, boots that are slip resistant, and walking sticks are highly recommended.
No sandals.
Binoculars (Optional)
Participation in the hikes will require all hikers to complete a Waiver of Liability. Any participants under the age of 18 will need a parent to sign their waiver of liability. An email confirmation will be sent out to registered hikers on Wednesday, January 15th.
Welcome to our calendar of Meet-ups and Community Events!
All calendar items are independent local meet-ups hosted by outside volunteers, or are organized events ran and managed by other organizations. All are open to 100 Mile Club participants and families. Please check periodically for time/date changes and cancellations, or contact the volunteer listed as “organizer” for any questions.

Counting Miles at Events and Meet-ups
While miles from listed meet ups may be counted toward a participant’s 100 Mile Club goal, it is ultimately the decision of each school to honor miles earned from this calendar at their site. Check with your school 100 Mile Club coach or teacher to verify whether they will accept miles earned at a specific outside event.
At most events, a credit slip or medal will be given to take back to a child’s school for mile-credit. Credit slips will be issued only for time listed for each event.
Weather Permitting
All events scheduled are as weather permits. Events may be cancelled up until the time of the event. Every effort will be made to advertise any cancellations or changes, including updates on the website and on social media. It is ultimately up to the attendee to verify if an event is scheduled. Credit slips will not be issued for cancelled events.
