Ladies’ Hike Out: Magruder Branch

Kyleen Davis, Community Contributor

You can see through the forest now. The trails are frozen hard, errant
snowflakes wander through the air, and the best way to stay warm outside is to
move! Come explore the winter landscapes of Montgomery County with us. Each month highlights a different trail and
habitat which we’ll hike vigorously, pausing here and there to examine the
unique features of this quiet, subdued season. Please dress for the weather.
Directions to the trailhead will be provided. Boardwalks aren’t just for the
beach! The Magruder Branch Trail has several of them traversing the marshes bordering
this forested stream in Damascus. On our back and forth walk , we’ll enjoy
mainly level, paved surfaces as we observe the immense importance of freshwater
wetlands. Brookside Nature Center,
