I chose Lone Rock, a cliff above north beach. I bike there, which takes about 14 minutes, and I chose Lone Rock because out of the places I was deciding between, I felt the most connection to it. I loved the variety of plant life, and I think that Lone Rock is one of the most beautiful places to watch the sunset. I also chose Lone Rock because I think it will be interesting to observe the changes in the water as the seasons change and parts of the lake maybe freeze. There is a diverse ecosystem of forest, cliffs and lake. The rocks are layered with dolostone and limestone, and there are pine trees, cedars, and numerous buckthorn along the edges of the cliff. There are also many oak and maple trees. More specifically, I noticed, red and sugar maple, and white and northern red oak.
