Sloppy Joe Hike: Spring Edition!
Sunday, April 13, 2025, 9 am – Noon
Join SEA hike leader Juliet Malik for a spring hike on one of Redding’s newest trails. We will walk a different route than the one we took on the November trip and explore the bounty of spring green and blooms along the seasonal creek before winding our way up the ridge through the oak woodland to note emerging understory wildflowers. Along with spring plant growth comes of course, all the wildlife that depend on it! We will keep our eyes and ears open for the many birds, butterflies, bees, frogs, and other critters inhabiting this beautiful place.
This trip will cover about 3 to 3.5 miles round trip and take about 2-3 hours. Stream crossings now have sturdy bridges, but if there has been recent rainfall, the trail may truly be “sloppy,” so wear appropriate shoes. Some sections are steep, rocky, and uneven, so good balance is required, and poles are always a good idea. And, of course, remember sunscreen and water and a snack if you desire.
To join, please sign up via THIS FORM so we can contact you if there is a change in plans. The meeting location will be sent once you fill out the form. Contact juliet@ecoshasta.org for any questions.
