We would like to address the difficulties of taking students on field trips , while also providing inspiring examples. That's where you all come in. I am looking for examples of field trips you have led, either at your site or to local natural areas, that focused on exploring nature and/or collecting citizen science data. Specifically, where did you go, what did you do there, how was the trip funded (and anything else you think might be useful). Even a brief description could be useful in providing as wide a variety of examples as possible.
