Exploring the Green River Game Lands

Exploring the Green River Game Lands

On Sunday, November 6, MountainTrue hosted a hike through the Green River Game Lands with 26 participants accompanied by six staff members. We used the opportunity to promote our newly updated trail maps of the Green River Game Lands, which were published by MountainTrue with support from the Perry Rudnick Foundation, Community Foundation of Henderson County, and Polk County Travel and Tourism.

Hikers heard from field biologist Josh Kelly and ecologist Bob Gale about forest communities and invasive species, and Gray Jernigan, Southern Regional Director, spoke about the history of the area and the process of developing the map to promote recreation. The foliage was beautiful, the company was great, and knowledge abounded!
