Lily family

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here are GPS coordinates to the trailhead of "The Trillium Trail" (as it is known locally):

38deg 56.371N
078deg 02.352W

Walk from the trailhead downhill to the Appalachian Trail. Turn North and hike through mature hardwood forest and see acres of wildflowers. Carry an identification book and a charged camera battery.

The Trillium flowers peak the first two weeks in May and they are starting to wilt now.
