Field Trip to Willie Duke’s Bluff, Durham
Willie Duke’s Bluff is a steep bluff along the Eno River downstream of Penny’s Bend, with an unusual array of wild flowers. Stars of the show this month are Dutchman’s Breeches (Dicentra cucullaria) as well as many other beautiful spring flowers.
The walk to the bluff is about 20 minutes (one-way) along an easy, natural-surface segment of the Mountains to Sea Trail. At the bluff we will diverge from the MTS trail onto rougher terrain that may be slippery in places. So wear sturdy shoes!
