Tom, Great to a reference list like this for the whole state. Thanks for pulling the list together. It will help me get the most out of my time should I ever find an opportunity to get out in the woods.
Here are a few updates, mostly of less measured species. Maple, striped...............54.2'.....2'0".....Balsam Mountain, Catskills Alder, speckled............28.9'.....10.5"...Cicero Swamp WMA Ash, black...................91.1'.....4'0"....Cicero Swamp WMA Juniper, common..........24.2'.....1'3.5"..Bonaparte Fen Larch, eastern..............91.0'.....6'3.5"..Jam Pond Spruce, black..............76.9'.....3'11.5" Bonaparte Fen White cedar, northern...83.5'......9'2".....Bonaparte Fen Cherry, choke..............30.3'.....1'6"......Three Mile Bay WMA Poison Sumac.............18.6'.....1'1"......Three Mile Bay WMA Nannyberry..................26.3'.....2'10"....Henderson Shores Unique Area For the most part, I doubt these individuals are exceptional, though the northern white cedar and nannyberry may be. Bob, I believe Dale had a taller Norway spruce at Letchworth Gorge SP (129.2'?).
