Earth Day Wildflower Update
Savage Gulf is blooming with all this great weather and thunderstorms we have been having.
Down in the gorges, Collins Gulf & Savage Gulf are full of trillium, jacks in the pulpit, blue bells and so many others that it is just beautiful.
Mary Priestley is leading a hike this weekend to view these wonders in Collins Gulf towards Horsepound Falls.
On top of the plateau the dogwoods and redbuds are beginning to flower and right outside the ranger station in our planters the flowers have emerged and the ferns are starting to unfurl.
Along the trails the shoots of lady slippers are peeking up and the mountain laurel will be ready to bloom before too long.
Spring is here! The waterfalls and creeks are up thanks to the much needed rainfall. Snakes are seen on the trail and of course one will get a tick or two, but its all worth it.
