For folks who plan to travel to West Virginia for our Cranberry Glade Botanical
Area field trip, the agenda for Saturday and Sunday is as follows:
Saturday-- Meet at the Cranberry Glade Visitor Center at 8:30 am. It's
located about 10 miles southwest of Marlinton, WV on route 39, a turn-off of US
219 out of Marlinton at Mill Point. The visitor center is on the left and
clearly marked. We'll explore the boardwalk through the peatbogs and a trail
through the forest to a usually-productive meadow that had once been the site
of a prison many years ago. Bring goodies for lunch and we'll find a picnic
site along the way. In the afternoon, we'll explore several trails at Watoga
State Park, south of Marlinton. The John and Carolyn Coe will host a potluck
meal on Saturday evening at their cabin in Watoga State Park and all are
invited to enjoy some companionship and frivolity. Bring something to share
food-wise, and feel free to BYOB if you're so inclined. The Coe's cabin number
will be revealed on Saturday morning!
Sunday-- We'll travel south of Marlinton on US route 219 to Beartown State
Park to view Beartown Rocks and bird the park's trails. Around noon, we'll
head for home: continue down route 219 to join I-64 for the return.
