Join Floracliff naturalists for a “golden hour” creek walk exploring the lower stretch of Elk Lick Creek. We’ll look for wildlife living in the stream and along the limestone cliffs as we make our way through the creek bed. Hopefully there will still be enough water in August for our feet to get wet! This program is suitable for youth and adults.
Hike distance and difficulty: 1-2 miles; rated difficult, due to the steep and uneven trail used to access and return from the creek; there may also be rocky ground and slick spots to navigate in the creek
Program Leaders: Isabel Cochran, Land Stewardship Technician & Dan Patrick, Volunteer Naturalist
Bring: water and a lightweight backpack to carry your personal items
Wear: sturdy, closed-toe hiking shoes; long pants are recommended to avoid poison ivy and nettles along the trail
Optional: hiking poles, snack, camera, extra socks/shoes to change into after the hike
In the event of hot weather and low water, the destination of this program may be changed.
The meeting location will be emailed to all registered participants a few days before the hike.
Please be sure to provide correct email addresses and cell phone numbers for all registered participants in order for us to share important hike details and changes.
