Northern hardwood and northern hardwood spruce mix in first 1.5 miles and in the eastern loop.  Few old growth tree scattered, perhaps this area was logged at some point. Beginning at 1.5 mile point on the Lean-to trail shifts to big trees with mix of hardwood and conifer. Suspect this will continue as you go further in on this trail.
