The new Walking Paths & Protected Areas of the Keweenaw guidebook is designed to increase awareness of local land conservation efforts and special habitats in the Keweenaw, its unique features, and rare plant and animal species found in Houghton and Keweenaw counties.
“I noticed that a lot of people were unfamiliar with the sanctuaries and preserves open to the public for walking, education, and non-motorized enjoyment,” said Joan Chadde, K-12 education program coordinator for the Michigan Tech Center for Science & Environmental Outreach and Western UP Center for Science, Math & Environmental Education, who compiled the guidebook.
