Mark Stock's Nichols Arboretum Page
Or, "The Arb", That place with the Trees, etc.
I had to create a page extolling the wonders of the Arb. I am one of many
people who enjoys its rolling hills, trees, brush, and flying insects.
If you haven't been there, take a Saturday and go wander some trails.
8/28/94: The only graphics I have for this page right now is a map. Some nice
photographs will be included soon.
2 Years in the Making - Pictures!
9/18/96: OK, I've finally gotten off my butt and brought a camera to the Arb.
Here's what we saw that day in September, 1996.
Also, check out the REAL Nichols
Arboretum Page, run by the School of Natural Resources and Environment.
Way to go, dudes!

This is a view from the bowl just north of
the pine grove, looking west toward the main valley. Just to the right
of the photo was a rock (now removed) that has sent at least 2 sledders
to the hospital. Sledding is not recommended (by the authorities), I
personally believe that the Arb is a great place for sledding. 60KB JPG |

This is a view looking up from atop the little
hill upon which is located the "Pine Grove." Its an excellent hang-out
spot, but, please, no runic inscriptions in the dirt. |

More pictures coming soon. |
