About This Activity

Leader: Stephanie Mason A little more than an hour northwest of Washington, DC lies Catoctin Mountain, the front edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Here, on a day of the week when visitors are few, we’ll enjoy early autumn in Catoctin Mountain National Park. We’ll hike around 3 miles, at a leisurely pace, as we look for the plants and animals that inhabit the Park’s woods and waterways. In addition to natural history, we’ll consider the Mountain’s cultural history and past land uses. Our explorations will include uphill/downhill hiking over rocky and uneven ground, which may be muddy and/or slippery.
