From Tracker Diane Boretos

This area is an important ecological feature in the region due to not only the 200 to 300 old trees, but because of the flora and fauna diversity it supports. There is floodplain forest associated with Big Wilson Stream, floodplain vernal pools and old soft and hardwood stands of hemlock, white pine and maples. All of these community features are providing unique habitat for many species of animals and plants. This area is a ecological treasure that should be preserved.
