CANCELLED: Rushton Woods and Okehocking Preserve, 19073

  • 14 Feb 2021
  • 11:00 AM
  • Rushton Woods Preserve, 911 Delchester Road, Newtown Square

THIS HIKE IS NOW CANCELLED DUE TO CONTINUED ICY CONDITIONS.


I'm sorry to have to cancel this hike, especially so late, but roads are still very icy and predictions are now that icy conditions will continue through at least late morning. Further delaying the start time would not give us time to complete the hike.


6-7 miles. Meet at 11:00 a.m. in the new, paved parking lot at Rushton Woods Preserve, 911 Delchester Road, Newtown Square. From Route 3, traveling west, turn right onto Delchester Road and follow it almost to where it dead ends at Goshen Road. The first turnoff into the preserve is the paved lot (39.98283,-75.48676). Okehocking and Rushton Woods Preserves provide moderate hiking in a beautiful, varied farmland setting. We will hike 2-3 miles in Rushton Woods, walk just over one mile to Okehocking Preserve, and hike another 4 miles there before returning to Rushton Woods. Bring lunch, snacks, and water. There are often very muddy, wet areas in both preserves. A face mask is required and must be worn when social distancing is difficult. RSVP required at https://www.meetup.com/Batona-Hiking-Club/ or by contacting leader. Limit 10 participants, including leader. Cost $1.00. Leader: Abbie Wysor, 610-742-5967, abbiewysor@gmail.com.
