Friends of Willapa National Wildlife Refuge have a fun hike coming up, their last one for 2024! There is still room on this adventure to join Rebecca Lexa, certified Master Naturalist, as she guides you on a fall hike at the Porter Point Loop on Sunday, October 6, from 10am to 12pm. Space is limited, so please register on our Event page to attend this free hike: https://friendsofwillaparefuge.org/Events
The hike will begin looking across Willapa Bay and a tidal marsh where shorebirds and raptors are often seen. The trail then forms a loop where you enter a cedar wetland before climbing and descending to the ridgetop of Porter Point. Here you will see views of the Bay, including Long Island, as well as the Columbia River on a clear day! This hike is 2.4-miles and moderately difficult.
Meet at Willapa National Wildlife Refuge Headquarters, in the parking lot at the end of 67th Place, Long Beach.
