Join the cofounder and Executive Director of the Eastern Native Tree Society (ENTS), as he takes us on another memorable forest walk. Experience the enthralling eloquence of old-growth evangelist and forest ecology expert Bob Leverett as he entertains, enraptures, and enlightens in this exceptional mountain environment. This is not only a trip through an area of exquisite beauty, but also an opportunity to learn about the natural environment and human history and culture - and of course, there are the trees! This area has some of the oldest and largest White Pines in New England, all of which Bob has measured with methodology he has developed. In addition, Bob will share information on his collaborations with climate-change scientists utilizing his studies.

Today, we will visit an area with majestic trees, including the Elders Grove of white pines dedicated to Native American sachems, past warriors, and modern-day peace-makers. With the wild upper reaches of the Deerfield River below, and the awe-inspiring Negus Mountain beyond, this grove of trees evokes a sacred feel that you will long remember.
