Annual Feld Trip to Balancing Rock to see Skunk Cabbage, Dwarf Mistletoe, Curly Grass Fern Sat. Mar. 28

Charles Cron will be leading our Annual Field Trip to Balancing Rock Trail on Sat. March 28 : Rain date April 4 if required. Long range forecast is ok for March 28 at present.
The site is well marked now . Follow the road signs to Digby neck Tiddville and East Ferry. Cross Petit passage by ferry (no fee) to Tiverton, on Long Island. The ferry departs Tiverton on the hour and when you return, it departs East Ferry on the half hour.  Follow the road signs to Balancing Rock Trail and meet in the parking lot at 10:00hrs. Almost 3hrs drive from Halifax ( with stops), so allow for travel time and ferry. If you need gas stop in Digby; also Tim Hortons or McDonalds for coffee: there is not much else on long Island.
Skunk cabbage and dwarf mistletoe are the main species to see. If time permits we may also look for curly grass fern at a site along the way back.
Please register with me by email by Wed .March 25 if you plan to attend. I expect to be at Parker’s Cove near Annapolis Royal Friday to Sunday. Cell phone is poor there. Email ccron72@hotmail.com.
