Ladies’ Hike Out: Paint Branch

Fall is an ideal time for hiking and exploring the wilds of Montgomery
Parks. The heat has abated, colors are assuming vibrant hues, and there’s a
sense of excitement in the air. Relish the changes of the season as we hike
moderate distances and dis­cover what our wonderful park system has to offer. Among
the many pleasant surprises to be found in the Colesville area is the paved
trail bordering one of our high-quality streams, the Paint Branch. We’ll walk
about three miles on an easy grade, enjoying views of the stream and delving
into the colonial history that distinguished it. For more information, contact Brookside Nature Center at 301-962-1480 or www.brooksidenature.org
