Join Trail Works for a hike in Zurich Bog at 10:00a.m. on 10/9/10. We shouldn't need insect repellent but sturdy, water repellent footwear is recommended. Bogs are notorious for soggy, uneven ground and Zurich has it.
The pitcher plants, sun dews, Labrador tea and other bog residents won't be blooming but you will be surprised at the Autumn beauty that this unique habitat provides. Please mark you calendar and plan to join us. Zurich Bog in Arcadia, NY is a National Natural Landmark and is the property of the Bergen Swamp Preservation Society.
