Registration


Registration is closed

Sponsoring Organization: Maryland Native Plant Society

Join us for a three mile loop hike along the Billy Goat B Trail in search of twinleaf (Jeffersonia diphylla) and other spring ephemerals.

Leaders: Elizabeth Miller   

ONLINE REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. Limited to 10.

Registration limited to members only through March 7, 2018.

Notes:  This will be a hike, not a meander. We won't be stopping to look at every single green thing; rather, we'll walk at a moderate pace in search of flowers. The loop will be about 3 miles long. Parts of it involve some tricky footing and minor rock scrambling. We hope to cover it in about 3 hours, depending on how much is blooming 

Bring: Good footwear and layers of clothing, guidebooks, camera, water and snacks.  A walking stick or hiking poles if you use them.

Cancellation Policy:  We will cancel if it is raining more than a light drizzle. Contact leader if in doubt about the weather.  Phone number will be provided to registered participants.

Contact: (for additional information; not to register)  Elizabeth Miller, berry@IdRatherNotSay.com. 

Directions: Will be included in registration confirmation. The leader will contact you a day or two in advance with exact start location.
