This series of nature tech for newbies is for you! Each session will focus on a specific app or tech that makes nature more accessible. Topics include: Merlin ID for bird identification, iNaturalist for plant and animal identification, OuterSpatial and AllTrails for maps and hiking, and more!
Participants should have a device that will allow app downloading for the full experience.

OuterSpatial
Discover, explore, and connect with nature right from your phone! Our parks are featured on OuterSpatial, a free mobile app that helps you plan adventures, find trails, and learn more about the natural and cultural stories that make our parks special. Participants will be instructed on how to download the app, how different features work, and will use it hands on by picking a hiking trail and going on an adventure with staff on hand to help guide your use.
