2012 Audubon Hiking Schedule

The Kodiak Audubon Society invites you to join us for a stroll, a hike, or a climb! All hikes are free and open to the public. Meet your hike leader at 9:30 am in front of the Kodiak Island Convention & Visitors Bureau (Ferry Building) at the end of Center Avenue, downtown. The hike difficulty is rated from 1 (easy walk) to 5 (difficult) so you can select trips with a level of difficulty you can manage.
