Elk State Forest
Please join OGFN and the Pennsylvania DCNR for the induction of the Square Timber Wild Area in Cameron County into the Old-Growth Forest Network on Tuesday, November 19 at 11:00 am.
This nearly 120-year-old second growth forest contains stands of Dry Oak – Heath Forest, Red Oak – Mixed Hardwood Forest, Northern Hardwood Forest, Aspen/Grey (Paper) Birch Forest, Hemlock (White Pine) Forest, and Red Maple Forests. Square Timber Wild Area lies within the vast, very steep Elk Creek State Forest in Emporium Pennsylvania.
A short ceremony and hike will occur at this address. GPS is not reliable in the area. Wear sturdy hiking shoes, as the terrain is steep. Meet at the intersection of Ridge Road and Brooks Run Road. Photo courtesy of Joe Kellert.
