above the treetops

An emergent tree is a tree that is higher than the others in the canopy. Holden Arboretum built an observation tower in 2015, and calls it an Emergent Tower.

A model of the tower 120' above the forest floor in Kirtland O.

the seventh platform

Lake Erie is ten miles away.

October 13th and the color change is in progress.

I have noticed some of my older posts have had their formatting changed. I generally post fotos in blogger's large version, they have been made medium, or small. The text copy has had paragraph structure eliminated.
