Dec. 20 - 10AM Mud Spring hike, Welaka State ForestThe December field trip will be a lovely walk in the woods in Welaka State Forest to visit the small but pretty Mud Spring. Despite the name, Mud Spring is a clear third magnitude spring showing at least four boils in the shallow sandy bottom. The natural habitat along the trail is mostly mesic flatwoods, passing through small sections of xeric hammock, baygall, scrubby flatwoods and floodplain forest.The trail to the spring is about a 2 mile loop on an easy, mostly shaded path. Or we can go in and out on the short side of the loop for about a 1.5 mile total walk. There is a restroom (permanent composting toilet) and a picnic pavilion at the spring. We will take a break to enjoy the spring and the view of the spring run before heading back out.The trailhead is on County Road 309 across from the Welaka State Forest Visitor Center, south of the town of Welaka & the Fish Hatchery Aquarium and north of the Welaka National Fish Hatchery Beecher Run unit.There is a $2 per person day use fee. This can only be paid online, but you can do it in advance or afterwards if you do not want to do it at the entrance (there is a QR code there). Pay online here.Wear clothing appropriate for the weather, bring water, insect repellant and sun protection.We will have the option to visit the Welaka Fish Hatchery Aquarium after the walk. Then lunch in Crescent City at Three Bananas on Crescent Lake.Note that this is a week later than our usual field trip date to avoid the early December holiday events. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/crescent-city/fnps-pawpaw-chapter-field-trip-to-mud-spring/100001966231462233 - **Event Categories**: trips-adventures, trekking, holiday - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Ffnps-pawpaw-chapter-field-trip-to-mud-spring-tickets-1966231462233 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Crescent City - **state**: FL - **country**: United States - **location**: Welaka State Forest Mud Spring Trail - **lat**: 29.4688738 - **long**: -81.660356 - **full address**: Welaka State Forest Mud Spring Trail, State Forest, Welaka, Crescent City, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: FNPS Pawpaw Chapter (https://allevents.in/org/fnps-pawpaw-chapter/23531084) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/ba7218703ea261411e82d9ef2b3f21a2b39f8087be8b4b13361e5cf5d751e369-rimg-w1200-h675-dc30342d-gmir.jpg?v=1762840528 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/667ad526171a9cb92a41d4d9c82421c879dc8d9646511e311a4540426c0d94ea-rimg-w400-h400-dc5e5f49-gmir.jpg?v=1762840528 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sat, 20 Dec, 2025 at 10:00 am - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Welaka State Forest Mud Spring Trail, State Forest, Welaka, Crescent City, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** FNPS Pawpaw Chapter - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** trips-adventures, trekking, holiday - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about FNPS Pawpaw Chapter field trip to Mud Spring ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "FNPS Pawpaw Chapter field trip to Mud Spring", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/ba7218703ea261411e82d9ef2b3f21a2b39f8087be8b4b13361e5cf5d751e369-rimg-w1200-h675-dc30342d-gmir.jpg?v=1762840528", "startDate": "2025-12-20", "endDate": "2025-12-20", "url": "https://allevents.in/crescent-city/fnps-pawpaw-chapter-field-trip-to-mud-spring/100001966231462233", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Welaka State Forest Mud Spring Trail", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "State Forest, Welaka", "postalCode": "32112", "addressLocality": "Crescent City", "addressRegion": "FL", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "29.4688738", "longitude": "-81.660356" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "The December field trip will be a walk in the woods on an easy trail to Mud Spring in the Welaka State Forest in southeastern Putnam County.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2025-12-20", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/crescent-city/fnps-pawpaw-chapter-field-trip-to-mud-spring/100001966231462233" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/crescent-city/fnps-pawpaw-chapter-field-trip-to-mud-spring/100001966231462233", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "FNPS Pawpaw Chapter", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/fnps-pawpaw-chapter/23531084" } ] } ] ```
