March 20, 2010 Visit to check plantings
On this visit, we checked the sycamore and swamp white oak seedlings we planted in 2009.
The seedlings we were able to find looked good. However, it is very difficult to spot the seedlings until the leaves appear.
I find that ODOT has moved down some of my line markers and seedlings. I will need to see if I can find out who is responsible how to avoid this in the future.
I was surprised to see that the tree that fell into the stream and caused the stream to move west is now mostly buried in sand and the stream has now moved a bit east from the earlier path. Just the roots now stick up.
The driveway seems dry and we should be able to drive in in mid April to start planting seedlings again.
