The Blue Ridge Snorkel Trail is an innovative education project that will link together a set of publicly accessible river sites where people can safely snorkel to experience the underwater world of streams and rivers of western North Carolina. Luke Etchison will share information about the development of the Blue Ridge Snorkel Trail and about some of the river critters you can enjoy while river snorkeling.
