Join us for a trip to the top of the Calapooia Divide, coming from the Cottage Grove side. Since this is a transition zone, we’ll look for species on the northern end of their range like Nutall’s linanthus and Siskiyou false hellebore as well as 4 different species of stonecrop, Washington lilies, ghost orchids, and other myco-heterotrophs. On the bird front, we’ll look and listen for varied thrushes and hermit thrushes. We’ll make several stops on our way to the top, visiting a variety of habitat types. Bring lunch, water, hiking boots, and sunscreen. Meet at South Eugene High School at 8:30 am or Row River Nature Park in Cottage Grove at 9:00 am to carpool. Sign up here
