BOGGS MOUNTAIN, Calif. – The Friends of Boggs Mountain will be offering a 2.25-mile hike on various Boggs Trails on Wednesday, Feb. 19, at 9 a.m.

This will be moderate-level hike on moderate terrain with some elevation and will be led by Darlene Hecomovich.

This is an opportunity to get some exercise while you appreciate the outdoors and the wonders of nature.

Check out the forest flora in its winter aspect from the ground cover of bracken, bunch grass and mosses to the understory filled with coffeeberry and manzanita, and on to the upper story of magnificent Douglas fir and sugar and ponderosa pines.

Hikers can admire the silhouettes of the leafless deciduous trees and shrubs, and with all the recent rain, the mosses and lichens should be vibrant. Come and enjoy it all as we hike!

Wear sturdy shoes, dress appropriately for weather conditions, and bring water and enthusiasm.

Meet at the parking lot kiosk promptly at 9 a.m. The forest entrance is located off Highway 175 just one and one half miles north of Cobb Village. Turn at the blue State Fire Station/Boggs Mountain Forest sign.
