Much of the 1300 acres iscovered with second growth on land once farmed; a nice walk but nothinginspiring. There is an area on a ridge near an old quarry that hassome decent sized trees; cottonwood to 117' x 13'1'', tulip-tree to123.5' x 9'8'', sycamore to 115.7', sugar maple to 111'. In this areawas another interesting feature; an area of about 2 acres covered withbright green horsetails, Equisetum hyemale, around 4'-5'high, with slender but tall tulip-trees and sycamore overhead. Thebright green horsetails gave the area a pleasant Spring-likeappearance. There also were several young sycamores with unusual vivid brightgreen bark. Photos attached. I'll return to the area again to explore more thoroughly.
