NOTES ON THE FLORA OF DAY MOUNTAIN, 

 FRANKLIN COUNTY, MAINE. 



C. H. Knowlton. 



Day Mountain is a steep rocky ridge of land lying mostly in the 

 eastern part of Avon, reaching down into Temple at the southern end, 

 and into Strong on the eastern slope and northern end. It is nearly 

 parallel with the Sandy River, and its general direction is roughly 

 north and south. The ridge is well covered with deciduous trees 

 except at the southern end. Steep and often perpendicular cliffs are 

 very numerous, some of them two or three hundred feet high. 



The entire ridge is over three miles long and is divided into two 

 parts by a notch about one-third the distance from the northern end.
