Close-up Look
 Pleasant Hill is the name of this managed forest in central Georgia. To get a "birds-eye" view of this 1,000-acre forest, professional foresters use maps and aerial photographs to help them decide how the forest will be managed. The trees in the Pleasant Hill forest are used to make paper and building products. Like a natural forest, it provides a home for wildlife, helps protect water supplies and is used for hunting. This forest also acts as a buffer between pasture and other farmlands. Note the type and ages of the trees that grow here. Learn about the soils, the wildlife and the features made by both man and wildlife in this forest. |
