What are the trees in your Adirondack campground, or along the boulevard in your neighborhood? Now you can identify them quickly with this convenient, easy-to-use field guide, containing more than 60 vibrant color photos.
Grouped by mature size and photographed to display their most distinguishing characteristics—leaf shape, flower, seed, nut, or fruit—common native trees in this guide can be found from Niagara Falls State Park to the Taconic State Parkway, and from Montauk to the heart of the High Peaks region.
Accompanying text points out the unique features of each tree, to help you tell one tree from another in no time. Six double-sided, waterproof panels fold up to fit into your back pocket, waist pack or purse.
