Hi Susan, The only place that I can think of in our region that might fit this description is the Ordway Grove in the Norway/S. Paris area. Charlie Cogbill led a walk there for the McLauglin Foundation a number of years ago. Lee Dassler at McLaughlin could give you directions and background info. There is also the info in Dean Bennett's book on old growth forests.. Hope all is well.

There is a student at Bates who is assisting me this year and we both would like to take the kids (approx. 12 students in grades 2-6 and their parents) to an old growth forest as close to Lewiston/Auburn as possible. I know I have been to a pine stand of "Kings Arrow" pines north of here with JBS in the distant past. Winthrop? Leeds? I would be grateful for any help and info. Thanks , Susan --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? vote.yahoo.com - Register online to vote today!
