McKee Beshers Wildlife Management Area Sunflower fields

Recent reports by David Crooks indicate that the peak shuold be between July 10th and July 18th. It is a good idea to a have a ladder to be able to get above the sunflowers. Also, bring bug spray and good hiking boots to get through the fields. We will be there on July 10th, but if you cannot make that date, take the opportunity to get out there on your schedule.

From the Capital Beltway, take Exit 39 (River Road) west toward Potomac. Proceed for approximately 11 miles to the intersection of River Road and MD 112, Seneca Road. Turn left and continue on River Road for about 2 1/2 miles. McKee-Beshers will be on your left as you head west on River Road. For additional information, contact the Gwynnbrook Work Center at (410) 356-9272.
