Join the JSU Field School on the 1st Friday and 3rd Saturday of each month (with occasional additional dates) for a guided hike through the Little River National Preserve. As we explore the trails, we’ll discuss local plants, animals, and the natural history of the area.Get ready for a challenging 2-mile journey into the heart of the canyon, featuring steep and rugged terrain. Since cell service is unreliable in the canyon, please come fully prepared: wear sturdy hiking boots, dress in layers, and bring plenty of water, snacks, sun protection, and hiking poles.
As a special highlight, we’ll be joined by subject matter experts for our Amphibian BioBlitz! Together, we’ll investigate the fascinating frogs and salamanders that call Little River Canyon home.
Weather Notice: As with all outdoor programs, hikes may be canceled due to rain, storms, or unsafe trail conditions. If weather is questionable, please check with the Canyon Center before attending.
Meeting Location: Meet at the Little River Canyon Center, Fort Payne, Alabama (AL Hwy 35). Please arrive by 10:00 a.m. CT; we will caravan to the trailhead.
Registration appreciated.
