Wolverine Tracking Project

The Wolverine Tracking Project is a place for trackers of all skill levels to come together to strengthen their skills, while participating in a long-term survey to detect sign of rare forest carnivores.

Wolverine tracks nearby on Mt Adams

Have you ever wondered, while wandering through the woods, which creatures left those tracks in the snow, mud, or sand?

Do you like to hike in forests of deep wintergreen, draped in crystalline white?

Do you want to deepen your connection to the natural world?

Every winter, Cascadia Wild volunteers lead snowshoeing trips to the Mt Hood National Forest. We mentor participants in the science and art of animal tracking, while taking formal surveys of animal populations in the area. We are looking for evidence of the elusive wolverine, of which nobody is sure still exists on Mt. Hood.   Read more about the project.

The Wolverine Tracking Project is funded in part by a grant from the National Forest Foundation.  www.nationalforests.org

Founded by Congress in 1991, the National Forest Foundation works to conserve, restore and enhance America's 193-million-acre National Forest System.  Through community-based strategies and public-private partnerships, the NFF helps enhance wildlife habitat, revitalized wildfire-damaged landscapes, restores watersheds, and improves recreational resources for the benefit of all Americans.
