Pirate Treasure Hunt Hike

Nature Up North partnered with Blair Madore of the ADK Laurentian Chapter for a pirate themed treasure hunt hike last Sunday. On a picturesque fall day we set out on the Red Sandstone trail in search of lost pirate coins and the natural treasures of Sugar Island. We caught frogs, saw crayfish, roasted hotdogs, learned about pirates, and had a great romp around the woods. Thanks to all who attended!
