Me and hubby completed the Trekking though Autumn challenge that
was sponsored by the Medina County parks.
So happy I earned my backpack! Next year when we finish the hikes we
will earn a pin.
Had to hike through 8 Medina county parks nature trails. Some
of which were pretty hard. Lots of steep slopes, and rough terrain.
Most of the parks I didn't know existed, and I've lived in Medina for over 20 years.
If you are in the area and want to try the hikes you can find the info
Wolf Creek Environmental Center was the last hike which
is also the place that awards the backpacks. They
have this historical tree grove which is really awesome!
Hard to make this photo out, but it reads George Washington Tulip Poplar.
This tree is a offspring of the tulip poplar George planted
at the Mount Vernon Estate in 1785.
There was a school field trip underway when we visited the center.
Lots to see and do.
There are 13 parks in all on the trek, and we plan to visit and hike more of them.
