What’s New with the Southeast Alaska Birding Trail
In 2019, Audubon Alaska and its partners, the US Forest Service and Juneau Audubon Society, launched the Southeast Alaska Birding Trail, a virtual guide to 200 birding hotspots across the Alaska Panhandle. After three years of COVID-19, Audubon is re-launching the birding trail with a brand new web and mobile application, making planning a trip and visiting the birding trail easier and more accessible than ever. App developer Tory Elmore will share what’s new with the birding trail and demonstrate the exciting new application.
