While I was home I visited one of my favorite outdoor spaces that I often visit with my family to hike, run, swim, or just have fun. Moraine State park is a 16,725 acre area of forests and hills surrounding Lake Arthur, a 3,225 acre lake, in the center. One of my personal favorite area is located on the south shore and consists of three popular hiking trails that all connect to one another. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagebd5OR1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagebd5OR1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagebd5OR1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagebd5OR1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagebd5OR1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagebd5OR1-1568x2091.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagebd5OR1-scaled.bmp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Lake Arthur<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking at the species present here, there are a variety of coniferous and deciduous trees. You can find similar trees to those at Salmon Hole, like maples for example. There are a variety of maple trees at both locations, like sugar and red maples. There are sections of mainly evergreen trees, consisting of pines and spruces mainly. I decided to capture a photo of an area with some hemlocks and maples that recently lost their leaves. As some would call it, &#8220;stick season&#8221; is in effect in both places. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagegF4QsW-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagegF4QsW-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagegF4QsW-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagegF4QsW-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagegF4QsW-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagegF4QsW-1568x2091.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/tempImagegF4QsW-scaled.bmp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I highlighted below the area in which I took these pictures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"581\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/5BE69470-9461-4555-82A4-AB8AE07EAD82_1_201_a-1024x581.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/5BE69470-9461-4555-82A4-AB8AE07EAD82_1_201_a-1024x581.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/5BE69470-9461-4555-82A4-AB8AE07EAD82_1_201_a-300x170.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/5BE69470-9461-4555-82A4-AB8AE07EAD82_1_201_a-768x436.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/5BE69470-9461-4555-82A4-AB8AE07EAD82_1_201_a-1536x871.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/5BE69470-9461-4555-82A4-AB8AE07EAD82_1_201_a-2048x1162.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/bdittman\/files\/2022\/11\/5BE69470-9461-4555-82A4-AB8AE07EAD82_1_201_a-1568x890.jpeg 1568w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over fall break I traveled back home to a small town about an hour north of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
