Blueberries, blueberries, blueberries!!!

Posted on Tuesday 23 August 2011

 

Saturday was a gorgeous day – a little bit cool to start, then warming up to perfection by lunch time.

 

 

Berries everywhere – blueberries, huckleberries, bunch berries, weird shiny black berries and cranberries.

 

Lunch break – chillin’ in Red Creek after our fantastic lunch by Chef Janeen.

June Walks, plural, yes we have 2 walks this month!!

Posted on Sunday 5 June 2011

Hello Walkers!!

Walking season is here and we have TWO , that’s right, two, great adventures scheduled for this month.
June 18, Saturday. Roaring Plains. This is a recently declared Wilderness Area, adjacent to the Dolly Sods near Canaan Valley, WV.  This trail is one of my favorites and should be covered with blooming mountain laurel at this time of year.  We will meet at 9:00 at Canaan Crossing, WV and carpool to the trailhead from there.  The walk should last about 5 hours and lunch is included.  Rating: challenging.  Cost: $30.
June 25, Saturday. Art on the trail, a day of en plein air! This is a new offering.  We will spend the day with artist, teacher and outdoor enthusiast Charlie Waters looking at nature and recording it in our sketch books. This event will take place in the Canaan Valley.  We will meet at Hypno-Coffee in Davis, WV, at 9:00.  Art supplies and lunch will be provided.  Rating: easy walking, sitting on the ground.  Cost: $90.
I regret to say that our planned Yoga and Yogurt event for June 12 has been cancelled.
To sign-up for any of our scheduled events, go to:  http://www.wildwonderfulwalks.com/regis.html, or call me at 304-641-8144.
If you have any questions, give me a call at 304-641-8144.

Hello Walkers!
Time to dust off your walking shoes. We’ll be headed to the Thomas, WV, area on April 16 for our first walk to the Olsen Fire Tower and along the way enjoy some nice views of the Blackwater Canyon. Stay tuned for details.

Remember…
Go outside and play today!

Hi everyone!

Posted on Saturday 12 February 2011

We were hacked! Some nasty hacker managed to do some nasty stuff in our newsletter and we’re working on getting things back in order. Unfortunately, we lost all the photos and posts  and trackbacks that have been here for a long time.

The good news is we’re back in operation and will be adding stuff as we can.

Here’s the latest…

Its a chilly, icy day here in Clarksburg, WV, but that hasn’t stopped us from dreaming up a walking schedule for this coming spring, summer and fall.    All walks will be on the 3rd Saturday of the month, except for the walk in May.

We have added two Art on the Trail, or en plein air, events.  The first is June 25 with Charlie Waters, an artist from Canaan Valley.  This walk will emphasize the importance of keeping a sketchbook with you on your hikes.  The second will be with Clarksburg, WV water-colorist, Carolyn Light, on July 23.  This event will explore painting in nature.  There is a possibility for more art walks if there is interest.
