Field Trip to Magazine Mountain State Park

Join members of ASCA and Park Interpreter Don Simons for a “Bird and Butterfly Ramble” on top of Mt. Magazine to enjoy birds, butterflies, and wildflowers.  Rufuous-crowned Sparrows, warblers, buntings, tanagers, swallowtails, fritillaries, and others are likely to be found.  Arkansas’s premier butterfly expert and author Lori Spencer is assisting the group late in the morning.

Those in the Little Rock area, meet at 7:00 a.m. at the west Little Rock Wal Mart parking lot (northwest corner) on Hwy. 10.  We’ll caravan Hwy. 10 to Havana, then take Hwy. 309 up the mountain.  We should arrive at the Visitor Center around 9:00 a.m. for anyone who would like to meet us there.  We’ll walk some unpaved trails, so wear sturdy shoes.  Bring water, snacks, and lunch, or eat in the Lodge restaurant.  We’ll get back to Little Rock mid-afternoon.  Go to www.mountmagazinestatepark.com for more information about the park.
