Science Stroll: City Nature Challenge Hike

Interested in learning how to utilize the biodiversity logging app iNaturalist? Join an ALT Educator on a hike where we'll discuss how to properly use the app, as well as begin logging some of the biodiversity of Girty's Woods as part of the 2025 City Nature Challenge (CNC). The CNC is a worldwide challenge to see which countries and cities can log the most biodiversity over the course of one weekend. Pittsburgh's goal? Beat Philly and Cleveland! Check out the 2024 statistics here: City Nature Challenge 2024: Pittsburgh Region · iNaturalist
