The incredible cliffs on the western side of the Door Peninsula are a part of the same Niagara Escarpment which the powerful Niagara River slices through at Niagara Falls. Join Don Mikulic, with the Niagara Escarpment Resource Network (NERN) to learn about the globally significant unique features of the escarpment; natural, cultural, historical and environmental. After the presentation, take a hike to see where the escarpment is present on Plum Island and learn about the plants that are dependent on this rare geologic formation. Transportation from Gills Rock provided aboard FOPPI’s charter boat, The Shoreline.
