Geocache Description:



International Year of Forests Big Tree Geocache

The United Nations General Assembly declared 2011 as International Year of Forests to celebrate the sustainable management of the world's forests. Organizations throughout Maryland and the Chesapeake Bay watershed have taken this opportunity to encourage the celebration of forests for people. Check out Forestry for the Bay for more ways to celebrate International Year of Forests in your area.

The Chesapeake Bay Forestry Workgroup in partnership with the Maryland Forestry Boards want YOU to see some of the biggest trees in Maryland. Take an easy walk with a breathtaking tree as a reward. Remember to bring a camera to get a picture with a champion tree.

Corcoran Tract is an environmental area which has 4 miles of hiking trails and is family friendly for a day in the woods. Come see a big sweet gum in a closed canopy setting. Corcoran is open dawn to dusk. It is recommended to wear insect repellent and tuck your pants into your socks.
