Finding a full dozen icons of the Wissahickon Valley with Cathryn Fassbender and Bruce Wagner

A walk from VGI to Mt Airy Bridge and back going through some of the most interesting icons and points of history in the park. (More than a dozen) Our walk of around 3 miles takes us to points of history, use, and pleasures of the Wissahickon Valley. We’ll see what is happening today, and see what used to be over the course of two centuries.
Our paths include rocks and hills, and we will even ford Cresheim Creek, so wear good hiking shoes. Our pace will be easy, and the terrain will be moderately difficult.

Meeting place: Valley Green Inn
