ENTS
Here I sit in the Charlemont Inn eating a huge pancake with lots
of maple syrup, Mmmmm! After breakfast it is out to the Trees of Peace
to continue the update of Mohawk's members of the famous 150 Club,
Massachusetts chapter.
The 150s in Mohawk are located in named stands or groves. One
grove is officially named Trees of Peace. There are around 25 150s in
the Grove. That is the count from prior measurements. With luck, I'll
get the number updated for DCR in 2 or 3 outings. Do I really want to
put in all the time needed to keep the count current? YES!
