Ski with a Scientist is a free program (Paul Smith’s VIC trail pass required) and part of their Save Winter initiative. Visitors can learn from leading scientists in an active and outdoor setting. Group size is limited, so reserve your spot in advance.

Celia Evans is a former Professor of Ecology at Paul Smith’s College. She is an ecologist, educator, and singer/songwriter who uses “place” to contextualize her science teaching and songwriting.

Celia’s ecological research has included beech bark disease impacts on forest structure; snowshoe hare browse behavior: the role of plant chemical defenses and habitat; the response of invasive and native aquatic plants to water temperature in a changing climate, and the factors that structure peatland plant communities. Following a dissertation in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Dartmouth College, she did a post-doctorate in Science Education at the University of New Hampshire.

The event will start at 11 am on Saturday, February 17, 2024. The program is free to attend, but a trail pass is required.
