Autumn Guided Nature Walk

Three centuries ago, when fall transitioned to winter, local Lunaape people prepared for the important late autumn hunt in the mountains. Join us for a free guided walk with ethnoecologist Justin Wexler to explore local flora, fauna and surrounding ecosystems through Northeastern native languages, history and folklore. This event is part of Emerson resort's Community Week, a week filled with live music, local authors, nature walks, and family fun, all celebrating the Catskills community.

Justin Wexler of Wild Hudson Valley is an independent scholar who has studied Hudson Valley Native culture, languages, and history for over twenty years. He regularly works with members of their displaced federally-recognized communities, hosting tribe members on visits to their ancestral homeland and helping to connect the past with the present.
