Join SCLT Director of Conservation John Graves and the Bighorn Fence Initiative as we complete the first phase of a wildlife friendly-fencing project to make the SCLT Big Goose Natural Area more friendly for wildlife, such as mule deer and white-tailed deer.

Together, we will remove the old barbed-wire fence to clear a path for a new wildlife-friendly fence that will be installed this summer. Your help will help make it easier for wildlife to move safely across the Big Goose Natural Area.

This project is part of SCLT’s work stewarding this resource on the edge of our growing community, ensuring it remains open, accessible, and working for generations to come.

When: Saturday, May 31, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Where: SCLT Big Goose Natural Area, located at 14 Lane Ln, Sheridan.

What to bring: Please wear comfortable outdoor clothing and sturdy shoes or boots. We recommend dressing in layers and wearing long sleeves and pants. Bring work gloves and fencing tools, if possible. SCLT will have some gloves and tools available. Please bring a water bottle and sun protection. Bug spray may come in handy. We will be working on uneven ground and possibly in grass and brush. Ticks, mosquitoes, and rattlesnakes are all present at the SCLT Big Goose Natural Area. No pets, please.
