Welcome to 2020 Walk & Ride for the Woods! On this self-guided Tree Identification hike of Bacon Ridge Natural Area, hike leader Bud Reaves, Anne Arundel County Forester, talks about some of the many species of trees that can be found within Bacon Ridge Natural Area. He discusses several ways to identify trees when you’re out for a hike, including assessing overall shape and size; looking at leaf shape and bark; examining twigs, leaf veins, and buds; and noting the appearance of flowers and fruit. At Stop 5, you’ll learn about the Mockernut Hickory. Learn more about Walk & Ride for the Woods at www.srlt.org/walkandride
