Vernal Pool

The vernal pool is constantly changing. It is a hub of life in the spring, a muddy field in the summer, and an icy pond in the winter. It is surrounded by hemlocks and ferns. This is a good site for reflecting on seasons and seasonal change, since the vernal pool itself is impermanent. Before they go, groups should watch a time lapse video of the pool taken over nine months.
