Kentucky is one of our least sampled states. Good to get another
site down there.

ENTS,
On 7/22/09 my wife and I took a trip to Northern Kentucky for a week
long conference in the vicinity of Dinsmoore Woods. We had
previously visited this site on 9/29/07 and spent most of the
afternoon due west of the homestead and south of RT18. We had a
couple hours free time on 7/22/09 to tour the Kentucky countryside
and decided to take another detour past Dinsmoore Woods.
We were in between downpours, so this time I only measured some of
the trees located at the homestead, no woods trees, all open grown
or edge trees. Hopefully next trip I'll get into the woods north of
the homestead. Quick perusal from the edge looked like it was
pretty heavily logged, but the decent sized tulip listed below was
on the edge of the northern woodlot. The "caretaker" said as much,
but mentioned there might be some larger scattered trees further
back in on the north side. Data follows:
Species CBH Height Comments
black cherry 11.5 86.3 homestead, N of RT18 (along edge
of RT18)
black walnut 12.4 84.4 homestead, N or RT18, 2x, CBH
taken at waiste 1.6' up
black walnut N/A 82.3 homestead, S of RT18, poison ivy
on trunk
black walnut ~10.5 88.8 homestead, S of RT18, poison ivy
on trunk
chinquapin oak 9.2 113 homestead, N of RT18
tuliptree ~14.8 113.8 homestead, N of RT18, edge of
northern woodlot, poison ivy on trunk
This will bring the RI up a little for Dinsmoore Woods to 106.16
Species CBH Height Comments
sycamore 12.2 126.1+
big tooth aspen 7.9 121.9
tuliptree 9.3 120.1+
chinquapin oak 9.2 113
black walnut 4.5 105.1+
N. red oak 6.9 102.1+
common hackberry 6.4 100.6
shagbark hickory 5.1 99.3+
swamp white oak 9.9 87.1+
