Description

Fall is a wonderful time to be out hiking in the woods.  No biting insects, and the fall colours some years can be beautiful.  Can trees be identified by the fall colour of their leaves?  In some cases, I think they can be.  The focus of our hike will be on tree identification techniques, including fall colour. Please note that terrain is uneven and can be slippery when wet.
