It seems not long ago that 2011 was just beginning but now we’re looking at wrapping up the last few months. Things have been very busy this year from forestry happenings to the unbelievable flooding in the Missouri River basin over the last several months. Luckily the waters have receded, work continues, and a gorgeous fall season is upon us.
Over the course of the next few months HRF will be spending time on improvements at Hitchcock Nature Center, savanna restoration in the southern Loess Hills, and working on land management activities. The weather is certainly enough to have us excited and motivated for the final push of 2011 before the often forgotten reminder of winter’s cold grasp is upon us again.
Here at HRF we hope everyone gets an opportunity to get outside to enjoy the wonderful fall weather, beautiful colors, and landscapes that western Iowa has to offer. Perhaps with a little luck our paths will cross…
