You know what they say: better late than never. Can you believe how long we waited this year for the rain to subside and the snow to start? Now that the ground is finally getting white, let's make up for lost time – hit the sled hills at Orchard Hills Park and Beartown Lakes Reservation, bird-watch, tree-ID, practice ice and snow photography, ski, hike and much, much more. Oh winter, how we've missed ya!

Naturalist John Kolar embraced the first possible opportunity to share winter's many benefits with all you seasonal video viewers. Care to join him? Scout Out Your Parks continues in 2012 featuring activities at Big Creek Park, The Maple Highlands Trail, Swine Creek Reservation and Frohring Meadows. Download a tracker of your own to start earning an exclusive winter patch!
