Let us rejoice in nature with a guided walk by Master Anjala at Steigerwald Nature park!

Sunday, May 19th, 9:00 a.m., join  Anjala Ehelebe for easy, accessible birding and nature lore at Steigerwald National Wildlife Refuge. All are welcome;  this will be geared for beginning to intermediate level birders. 

Meeting Location: the parking lot for Steigerwald Lake NWR is off SR 14 east of Washougal (45.571534, -122.320238).  I’ll have a bright banner so you can find me. The main Refuge entrance has a parking lot with one ADA van accessible spot/unloading area and one additional ADA accessible parking spot on the east side of the lot near the trailhead kiosk.

34301 SE Lewis and Clark Hwy Washougal, WA 98671

The birdwalk can be a 3.5 mile out and back hike at a 1 A classification for speed and slope (relatively slow and flat terrain) but we’ll adjust for the abilities of those who come.   

Dress for possible sun, wind and/or rain.  

You may wish to download the Merlin application onto your cell phone, it helps identify birds by sounds and colors.  E-bird is a fun one, and so is iNaturalist.  

Bring your binoculars and bird i.d. books.  Also a water bottle.  The restrooms are near the parking lot but there are none in the refuge, so hydrate mindfully.

Please contact Anjala at oregon@amorc.rosicrucian.org to RSVP so she knows to wait for you.

We look forward to an adventure with you!
