Will,
Unfortunately I will not be able to make it to Cook Forest. I
had
previously planned a camping trip for that weekend. The camping
trip is
to the Ramsey's Draft area in western Virginia. I hope to get a
chance
to check out some old growth hemlocks that grow in the draft and
see if
any are still alive.

Darian:
Steve Krichbaum of Virginians for Wilderness
once alerted me to very
tall white pines perhaps 3 miles up the draft. I didn't go that
far up
the draft.

Bob,
I'll keep my eyes open for tall(and fat) white pines, hemlocks,
and
probably some hardwoods too. From a previous trip I remember old
growth(not tall) oaks on the ridgetops. I most likely won't get
a
chance to do too much measuring as the trip is primarily for
photography
purposes, but I will try to measure at least a few. I hope
everyone has
a great time at Cook Forest. I'll toast a beer to ENTS while
camping.
