Field Trip: Siskiyou Plant Explorers Trip to Lithia Park Trail
Trip Leader: Matt Dybala
Meeting Location: Pioneer Hall, 73 Winburn Way, Ashland
As summer flowers have all but faded, the Siskiyou Plant Explorers will adjust our focus to an incredible diversity of trees located within Lithia Park. On this guided hike, we will explore the evolutionary history, reproductive cycles, and unique characteristics of trees. From ancient conifers to flowering hardwoods, we’ll uncover how trees have adapted over millions of years, how they reproduce, and what makes each species distinct. Perfect for curious minds who want to learn more about the secret life of trees while visiting a public park from a unique perspective. The total hike consists of a 2.1 mile loop trail with minor changes in elevation If you are interested in joining, please send an email in advance to si************@***il.com
