The White Oak is common on the better soils in the southern half of
Wisconsin and grows to a height of 60 to 100 feet, diameter 2 to 3
feet and may become larger. Tall and straight in forest; short in
the open with wide spreading, broad, rounded crown; numerous heavy
limbs spreading irregularly. The fruit is a light brown acorn
maturing the first year; length 3/4 to 1 inch, about 1/4 closed in
cap; germinates in a few weeks after ripening and sends down a
long, deep top root before winter. Permission to place this cache
was given by Mike Kactro of the Washington County Parks/Planning
Department. As this section of the Eisenbahn Trail is maintained by
