Serpentine Plant Treasures of Mt. Eddy

Serpentine Plant Treasures of Mt. Eddy

Be prepared to be enchanted by dazzling botanical treasures while hiking to the summit of Mt. Eddy, the highest peak in the Klamath Mountains. The serpentine habitat is home to an extraordinary number of wildflowers including some that are found nowhere else in the world, such as Mt. Eddy skypilot, as well as beautiful lakes and meadows. Saturday’s roundtrip hike is nearly 12 miles with a 2,400-foot gain in elevation at the summit. On Sunday morning, participants will see roadside rare plants and take a small hike north along the Pacific Crest Trail to see more rare plants and a plant that was until recently previously unknown to science!
Virtual introduction prior to field days, which is also available for stand-alone registration. Registration for the full field course includes 2 nights lodging at the beautiful Flowing Waters Retreat at Mt. Shasta.
