Sandhill Cranes, Cherokee History and Canyon Hike

Eco-A's signature event with Quentin Bass, retired Archaeologist, Heritage Manager and Tribal Liaison for the Cherokee National Forest, on a day-long visit to a special area near the intersection of the Tennessee and Hiwassee Rivers.

Saturday morning at 10:30 we’ll meet for a Cherokee history talk with Quentin Bass and tour the Blythe Ferry Memorial site. Then we’ll spend time watching the Sandhill Cranes at the nearby preserve. We’ll provide drinks and snacks but you may want to bring a picnic lunch.

Sunday we’ll lead an optional hike in the North Chickamauga Creek Gorge State Forest, located just north and east of Chattanooga.
