Come walk beneath the giants. We will be sauntering alongside the eldest Poplars and Buckeyes of Appalachia in the old growth of Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest.
This won’t be a super long hike, but be prepared to be on the trail, and potentially in some cold weather.
Plan to meet at the Cowee School at 8am, and we’ll carpool out to the forest. The drive will be over an hour from the Cowee School.
We’ll get to see some really impressive virgin forest and talk about this region’s natural history and winter tree ID.
Please RSVP if you’re interested in coming. We hope to see you there!
