The scenes along the Musser Gap Trail are memorable no matter the season. The 423-acre property was purchased by ClearWater Conservancy and transferred to DCNR Bureau of Forestry in 2007 in order to protect an important groundwater recharge area for the community as well as vital wildlife habitat. The trail is at a steady incline most of the way up with a beautiful bridge crossing over a brook about 0.8 miles in.
Schedule for this week:
Sunday, August 21:
🌳 1 and 3 p.m. Join a guided group hike along Musser Gap Trail to the foot bridge crossing Musser Run and back, about 1.6 miles altogether. The wide gravel trail inclines steadily on the way to the bridge, so a walking stick or pole may be helpful for some.
📝🍃☮ 1 and 3 p.m. Participate in a nature journaling experience, Leaf Me Alone, with Ann Taylor-Schmidt: Focusing on the natural world is meditative and renewing. Let’s do that with this wellness exercise focusing your thoughts on a specific tree and its leaves; describing them on paper with words, numbers, drawings, tracings and/or impressions; then, writing your questions to help you discover more later or writing about what’s on your mind – downloading it to help you untangle some feelings. You can focus on your own wellness, when you focus-in on nature.
