There were a LOT of Canadian Hemlock (Tsuga canadensis); old trees, young trees, one even uprooted but still holding on (will have a separate post for those two specific groups).
I’m sure there are at least 15+ specimens in that forest. I have never seen this many Canadian Hemlock trees in the wild before! All other specimens I’ve seen in the past have been either garden specimens (like in Cuddy Gardens) or were singular lonely specimens in the entire forest (that one swam forest walk a few years back).
It’s.... almost strange to think this tree is threatened by pests down south in the Appalachia.
