Tyler HR. 1988. To: Jack Hauptman, Superintendant. Re: No Title
FLORA - VASCULAR: A letter to Acadia National Park superintendent noting that the Blackwoods old growth red spruce stand, which Tyler visited, is well over 125 years old, pristine, shows good reproduction, and is of state and perhaps national significance as an old growth forest. Notes that this type of forest is rare on the coast and suggests it might have educational/interpretive value that would not damage the forest itself /STUDY LOCATIONS:/ /MOUNT DESERT ISLAND/Blackwoods GIS-CATEGORY 3 ; Flora-Vascular: Notes the location of an old growth area near Blackwoods Campground
