The amazing volunteer crew worked hard and smart and created great signage making the experience interesting and enjoyable for visitors. The inclined trails were covered in pine straw reducing slipping hazards and giving them a luxurious appearance. the lower trail has become too muddy with all the rain and has been roped off. There has been a lot of attention paid to the many species of trees, shrubs, vines, orchids and wildflowers on the preserve. Owls could be heard hooting as well as peeping frogs. You may want to bring a magnifying lens to get a great view of the blooming orchids and to see the trout lilies up close. They come in many unique shapes!
Please try to be careful and not trample the flowers!
