A traditional cache in Kemptville's Ferguson Forest Centre
This cache was placed for the Ferguson Forest Centre Spring CITO Event. Saturday April 25, 2009 from 10:00am to 12:00pm.
*** PLEASE - Do not hunt for this cache before 8:00 am on Saturday April 25, 2009! ***
This cache is along a pretty trail in the Centre that opens out into a beautiful stand of tall pines. The forest floor is covered in a soft bed of pine needles. The approach from the south can be a bit mucky, so watch your step.
Pines are among the most commercially important of tree species, valued for their timber and wood pulp throughout the world. In temperate and tropical regions, they are fast-growing softwoods that will grow in relatively dense stands, their acidic decaying needles inhibiting the sprouting of competing hardwoods. Commercial pines are grown in plantations for timber that is denser, more resinous, and therefore more durable than spruce (Picea).
