  • The Wissahickon in October with Debbie Hoellein, Jim McClory, and Peter & Jill Curatolo

    Blue Bell Hill Park 798 W Walnut Ln, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Meeting at Blue Bell Field Parking Lot There should be plenty of parking available in the lot. There are porta potties available for use at Blue Bell Park. Join Debbie, Jim, Jill, and Peter as we hike the Wissahickon in October. Our route will take us through areas of historical and natural points of interest, including Historic RittenhouseTown, Saylor Grove, and the site of McKinney Quarry. We hope to see some beautiful fall foliage as we wonder—why do leaves change color? We’ll be walking over some steep and rocky trails on our approximately 4 mile route, so be prepared. Children

  • The Wissahickon in December with Debbie Hoellein, Jim McClory, and Terry Fowler

    Blue Bell Hill Park 798 W Walnut Ln, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Photo courtesy of Friends of Saylor Grove Meeting at Blue Bell Park One reason we like hiking in the winter is that you can see clear across the Wissahickon. Join Debbie, Jim, and Terry on our first hike this winter season when we will not only see lovely vistas, but also how the flora changes with the cold weather, while beautiful rocks stay the same. And what type of fauna will we encounter in January? Our route to the other side of Lincoln Drive takes us through Historic Rittenhouse Town, and the site of the McKinney Quarry and Saylor Grove.
