hiking

We hike the Munson Sandhills in late March, finding early spring wildflowers in bloom, including two lupine species and new green blueberries.

Our family hikes the Garden of Eden Trail through steephead ravines, a recently burned longleaf forest, and up to Florida’s highest river bluff.

By the Choctawhatchee River, we hike through a recently burned longleaf forest and cross a swamp with dedicated trail volunteers.

We head deep into the Apalachicola National Forest in search of the most remote spot in Florida’s Big Bend. It’s part of one family’s years long mission.

At Lost Creek Forest in Thomasville, families explore an old growth forest at the headwaters of the Aucilla, and learn how to make use of native plants.

Thieving raccoons, high water on the Apalachicola, and learning to follow trail blazes make for a memorable camping trip for a WFSU producer and his son.

We hike the Bradwell Bay Wilderness as the sun goes down, in celebration of the 1964 Wilderness Act’s 50th anniversary.

We go kayaking, hiking, and standup paddleboarding to learn how the Red Hills protects the Tallahassee area’s drinking water.

RiverTrek paddlers get a new perspective on the Apalachicola River and its relationship to the floodplain as they hike protected lands around it.

We revisit the Apalachicola River for RiverTrek 2013. In our first video, we kayak a higher river than last year, and hike the woods and bluffs around it.
