In conjunction with or separate from the two-part class study, we will then enjoy a fun, naturalist-led visit to diverse floral habitats on our field trip to beautiful Deception Pass State Park. On an easy walk you will learn the species field ID and macro- to micro-habitat associations. Join us for an insightful journey into the wonderful world of wildflowers!

DO bring a lunch/water and, yes, there are tables for our lunch. A hand lens, camera and/or binoculars will come in handy.

Deception Pass State Park via our personal cars. *We will all need a Discover Day Pass to visit this state park. We can car caravan from the Bellingham Cruise Terminal, or you can meet us at the South Deception Pass Bridge parking lot on the west side of the road by the restrooms.

* If you don’t already have this pass you can purchase a day pass in the parking lot with a credit card.
