Spring Wildflower Hike

April 12 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm
Free

Join the Sleeping Giant Park Association for a guided hike about early spring wildflowers, led by SGPA Board Member and retired US Forest Service Scientist, Chris Fagan. Participants will learn how to identify some of the Giant’s ephemeral wildflowers, and the incredible ways they have evolved to thrive in the early spring.

Advanced registration is required, and registration will open approximately one month prior to the event date. Please register each hiker separately. There will be a wait list so please cancel if you find that you cannot attend. If cancelled due to weather, you will be contacted by email that morning.

This will be an easy to moderate hike, 2 hours or so with stops for discussion. Participants should dress appropriately for the weather and wear comfortable, supportive shoes with good traction. A day pack with snacks, water, sunscreen and any other essentials is recommended. Out of consideration for other participants, dogs are not permitted on SGPA hikes.

For additional information about this or other hikes, please contact SGPA’s hiking programs manager at [email protected].
