Varied Terrains Hike
9am-11am Saturday May 9, 2015 | Wissahickon Valley Park |
This event occurs in the past Varied Terrains of the Wissahickon A Trail Ambassador Hike with Scott Quitel NOTE: This event has been CANCELLED. Starting from our meeting spot, at the base of the valley, we'll head up the forested gorge to the open natural area known as Houston Meadow. Why is this spot dominated by meadow vegetation rather than large trees? Nearby, discover where a suspension bridge from Roxborough across the gorge to Chestnut Hill was planned but never built. Head down along Cathedral Run, across the Wissahickon, up the other side of the gorge, and to a schist barren, upon which Tedyuscung peers across the gorge. On the way back, pass a bubbling cascade that looks like a mountain stream. Pace brisk. Meet at Forbidden Drive and Bells Mill Rd. Cost: Free, registration recommended.
