Spring Botany Blast
April 11, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - April 14, 2024 @ 10:00 am
Headquartered at Hawks Nest State Park in Ansted, West Virginia. Pre-registration is required. Space is limited.
Nature enthusiasts who love to explore the great outdoors won’t want to miss our upcoming Spring Botany Blast in the New River Gorge area of West Virginia. From April 11-14, 2024, we’re hosting guided excursions where you’ll see 30 to 40 wild flowering plant species on two field trips in two days.
The weekend package includes meals, field trip transportation, checklists, and evening presentations. With the inclusive lodging options, you’ll stay in a private room at Hawks Nest State Park Lodge, or a cabin, for three nights!
Small groups of up to 12 on each field trip ensure you’ll have a personalized experience with our guides: Jim McCormac, Jodi French-Burr, Rosanna Springston, and Mitchell Dech.
Expect to walk up to two miles on mostly easy, and on somewhat moderate terrain Friday and Saturday. Bring your nature journal to record observations!
