Ontario's old-growth forests are ecological marvels where dwarf cedars can live for over a thousand years, and centuries-old pine trees can grow a breathtaking 14 stories tall. Incredibly, many of these wonders are just a daytrip away. The second edition of Ontario's Old-Growth Forests builds on the original guidebook, with detailed directions and maps for almost 70 old-growth forests throughout Ontario, including more forests in and around the GTA, and improved maps for all sites. It contains a wealth of information about the history and ecology of old-growth forests, and a revised chapter on the current state of old-growth forest conservation.
