10 Streamside Trail to the "Rocks" 



A path along Quaker run from near the swimming 

 pool up to the vicinity of "slide hollow" is known as the 

 streamside trail. From the vicinity of Buffalo camp and 

 "Slide hollow" paths ascend to a broken ledge of large 

 rocks on the slope above, perhaps 400 feet above the 

 bottom of Quaker run valley at this place. The forest 

 of the slope is very similar to the growth along the lower 

 part of the Stony brook trail, which is less than a mile 

 to the eastward. This second growth consists chiefly of : 



Sugar Maple, Acer saccha/rum Large-toothed Aspen, Populus 

 Basswood, Tilia americana grandidentata 



White Ash, Fraxinus americana Shad Bush, Amclanchicr lacvis 



Black Cherry, Pntnus scrotina Sweet Birch, Bctula lenta 



Beech, Fagus grandifolia Red Maple, Acer rubrum 



Yellow Birch, Betula hitca Hemlock, Tsuga canadensis 



Bird Cherry, Primus pennsyl- Hop Hornbeam, Ostrya znrgin- 



vanica iana 



Striped Maple, Acer pennsyl- Chestnut, Castanca dentata 



vanicnm Sassafras, Sassafras officinale 

 Cucumber-Tree, Magnolia acu- 

 minata 



Above the rocks the proportion of hemlock increases 

 and Beech, Maple, Black Cherry, Basswood and Birch 

 occupy the dominant positions as timber trees. The 

 shrubs and herbaceous vegetation are also similar to that 

 along the Stony brook trail, but the second growth and 

 transitory nature of the forest makes exact comparisons
