Brodhead Creek Watershed Assn Hosts 2 Hikes On August 29 In Monroe County

The free hiking series Get Outdoors Poconos by the Brodhead Creek Watershed Association continues August 29 in Barrett Township, Monroe County with two hikes.
The first option is for hikers who like a challenge: a scramble up Mount Wismer. Participants will hike trails passing by deliciously ripe blueberries, a boulder field, milkweed in bloom and the butterflies it attracts, native rhododendrons in full flower, and spring-fed pools. The best reward: a wrap-around panorama view from the top.
Mount Wismer is a 90-acre preserve abutting the 170-acre Gravel Family Preserve, where an easier hike will be held simultaneously. This family-friendly option is suitable for all abilities, although the trail is occasionally wet. Participants will see a beautiful marsh.
The hikes are free, but registration is required. Call 570-839-1120 or 570-629-2727 or email your name and contact information to: info@brodheadwatershed.org (subject line: Mount Wismer).
