The answer comes in two parts, depending on how you like your directions. The simple way would be to drop a link which uses google maps to bring you there. But other directions to get there include walking down from the centennials woods trailhead until you cross over three bridges\/wooden footpaths and come to a slightly more open clearing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#009860\">The vegetation within the area consists of a light layer of wood ferns. Along with ferns, there are fallen leaves and many pine needles which make up a soft forest floor. Above that there are tree saplings and young trees (many being Norway Maple) along with small Buckthorns. The tallest tree story is mainly composed of Eastern White Pine, Northern Red Oak, Norway Maple, and the occasional Paper and Yellow Birch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ad2f72ca wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignleft has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"656\" data-id=\"16\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-11-205535-1024x656.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-11-205535-1024x656.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-11-205535-300x192.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-11-205535-768x492.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-11-205535.png 1185w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"17\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0160-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0160-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0160-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0160.jpg 1005w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Here, we can see the general composition of trees in the area<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"18\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0165-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0165-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0165-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/hmulford\/files\/2023\/10\/IMG_0165-1.jpg 1005w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I chose Centennials Woods due to its close proximity to campus.
