Enjoy a late-spring hike with the GSWA's Director of Education & Outreach Hazel England. Hazel guide you through about all of the important landscape features in Jockey Hollow that soldiers in George Washington's Continental Army would have experienced during the brutal winter of 1779-80. She'll also tell you about some of the drastic environmental changes wrought throughout the encampment area since colonial times.

Wildlife, plants, and other natural treasures abound on this journey, so don't miss out on all you can learn from Hazel's encyclopedic knowledge of the outdoors.
