Whip-Poor-Will Hike
Loop hike from the Osprey House and finishing at Translater Lane.
This is an evening hike where will hike a series of trails throughout Lehigh Gap Nature Center property... LNE Trail, Prairie Grass Trail, Charcoal Trail, Appalachian Trail up to a grouping of cell towers where we will wait for sunset before descending Translater Lane. At the towers we will wait for dark and attempt to listen for the call of a Whip-Poor-Will. We will be hiking in the dark on the descent so a flashlight or headlamp is essential. Please bring water and wear sturdy hiking boots. Trekking poles are recommended as the area we will be hiking is steep and rocky.
