Olmsted Park - Iroquois Park

Iroquois Park Grassland at Sunset

Old tree - Iroquois Park

Frederick Law Olmsted said Iroquois was the nature preservation park of the park system.  The park has grasslands at the summit area.  Recently the park system has been presenting the park as the home of the "ten thousand year old forest."  Perhaps these mature trees on the uplands are hundreds of years old.  Sounds like it would be a good study for some of the eastern Native Tree Society members to try to measure the age of these trees.
