Skip to main contentBotanizing at Occoneechee Mountain
This North Carolina State Natural Area is a gem, with a diversity of natural plant and animal communities not found anywhere else in the Triangle region. Participants will join Paul Manos, Duke biology professor and Duke Herbarium curator, and Alec Motten, professor emeritus in Duke University’s Department of Biology, on a 2- to 3-mile mountain hike of moderate difficulty.
Both Alec and Paul bring deep expertise in plants and ecology; they will “read” the landscape and give participants a unique view of Occoneechee Mountain. Participants should wear comfortable clothes and good walking shoes and bring a lunch and beverage to enjoy while continuing the conversation after the hike.
