Under Governor Scott’s “Stay Home, Stay Safe” order for Vermonters, we have revamped our workshop and event offerings to be virtual for the near future. We hope you will join us from home to have fun together and learn about hiking, nature, and Vermont’s mountains. Please contact us with any questions. You can find recordings of select previous events here.
As we navigate the financial impact COVID-19 is having on the Green Mountain Club, we would appreciate any extra support you can give to ensure we can be prepared to hit the trail running when it is safe again. You can stay up to date with GMC’s COVID-19 response here.
Leave No Trace in Winter
Hosted on Zoom
Tuesday, December 8, 6PM – 7PM
Outdoor recreation doesn’t stop when the temperatures drop, and neither should Leave No Trace practices. Join this program to learn how to have a minimal impact on Vermont’s environment while continuing your favorite outdoor activities. Whether it’s dealing with poo in the snow or planning ahead for a safe and successful winter camping trip, this program will help you recreate lightly year-round throughout Vermont’s mountains.
Artwork on the Long Trail
Hosted on Zoom
Thursday, December 10, 6PM – 7:30PM
Refill your art supplies and join Green Mountain Club Field Staff Kati Christoffel as she leads us in a watercolor painting of a wintery scene on the Long Trail. As a former art instructor and Stratton Pond Caretaker, Kati has created many pieces of Long Trail landscapes and is looking forward to sharing that skill with you. You’ll learn the basics of interpreting a landscape image and how to use watercolors, pen & ink, crayons or even finger-painting to create your own Long Trail piece of art. Invite your friends, invite your family and we’ll see you on December 10th for an evening of artistic merriment!
