Here's some sights from visits by our computer campers during our Summer 2001 and Summer 1996 Cyber Haus Computer Camps.

The Visitors Center has many displays and a classroom. In the classroom we learned that Five Rivers is an environmental wildlife refuge and that we shouldn't take plants and we should watch out for some, like poison ivy.

Five Rivers includes five trails:

Beaver Tree Trail (1/2 mile loop)

This trail circles a man-made pond. Along the way you can see many forms of aquatic animal and plant life. We visited this trail in the Summer of 2001.

 

Woodlot Trail (1/8 mile loop)

This trail winds through a woodlot of trees and shrubs. You can see some glimpses of birds and small wildlife.

Old Field Trail (1/2 mile loop)

This trail is figure-eight in shape, and leads you through an abandoned orchard and field. Sometimes you can witness the stages of plant succession and their associated wildlife.

North Loop Trail (2 mile loop)

This trail passes through fields and forests along the Center's boundary.

Vlomankill Trail (3/4 mile loop)

This sometimes steep trail winds through a hemlock-shaded ravine on the banks of the Vlomankill stream. Don't forget to follow the yellow chip road! We visited this trail during the Summer of 1996.
