Massachusetts Routes
Routes are established by NAAMP based on a national protocol. Volunteers may adopt these pre-selected routes, making modifications according to set protocol only as necessary to provide a safe and viable monitoring route. These routes do not always run through the most wild and scenic areas of Massachusetts. Yet, it is important that all routes are covered. In order to ensure the scientific credibility of the monitoring data and maintain consistency with the national program, volunteers are not free to establish their own routes.
Currently we have two routes available for adoption for the 2007 season.
