Welcome to Rock Point! I Hope you stick around to see its amazing Phenology!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I have chosen to study and observe a place called Rock Point. It is located at the end of a peninsula that juts out into Lake Champlain, right at the end of North Beach. A very popular destination for locals, tourists, and of course college kids. Rock Point is a wonderful place to explore, marvel at the power of shifting rocks, and of course, jump off some! Rock Point is the first place I visited off campus in the first few weeks of school. I went cliff jumping with a bunch of my new friends and had so much fun exploring a new, beautiful place. I am so excited to see Rock Point’s beauty in every season over the next several months and hope you will join me!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Get To Rock Point: <\/strong>There are several ways to get to Rock Point from the University of Vermont. The first is using public transport, bus 1 takes you to the transit station in Burlington, from there transfer over to bus 7 and get off at the Burlington High School stop. From there you can either walk to north beach and take the path all the way at the end of the beach or take the trail past the Rock Point School. Riding a bike from the Davis Center also only takes about 20 minutes when using the waterfront bike and walking path. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of Woody Vegetation <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are many unique trees and plants found on the bluff at rock point. This is due to the lake affect weather that leads to slightly warmer weather and a longer growing season. This results in a diverse bluff community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
