Arkansas Native Plant Society Field Trip
Join leader Rick Hinterthuer for a trip to Sweden Creek Falls Natural Area, an Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission Natural Area, located in Madison County’s Boston Mountains. The area comprises a rich mix of wooded slopes and ridgetop sandstone glades, with an 80-foot waterfall as the (seasonal) centerpiece. The easy to moderate trail is 1.5 miles, round trip. Take a look at the Arkansas Natural Heritage Commission website for details.
When: Saturday, September 8, 2012
Directions: From the town of Boxley take State Highway 21 north. At 4.0 miles turn left (south) onto a dirt road and proceed 3.0 miles to a gate on the right. The road is closed to vehicle access, but visitors can park in the gravel lot near gate.
Time: Rick will meet you at the gate at 10 a.m.
