Team Echinacea is back in full force! With one of the biggest field teams in history, we are all excited to get started on research.
Today was the first day of the field season, full of lots of information. We started the day picking up the iconic fanny packs and some supplies. Then we headed to Staffanson and Hegg Lake to see the prairie.
After lunch, the team split up to visit some remnants to compare burned and unburned sites. I went to Landfill with Kennedy – stay tuned for more details later.
A look down the hill at Landfill East – check out all the stipa!
Once back at Hjelm we learned how to make tags for demo tomorrow and then called it a day. Tomorrow we will be ready to go bright and early for more prairie adventures!
