This is the current mystery!
Have you seen these old round
concrete foundations while walking at Havenwoods? I
have some theories about when they were built and
how they were used. When you find them, check them
out thoroughly. What stories do they tell you?

I’ve been
watching this little family of trees grow for
several years. As you hike around Havenwoods looking
for the place this photo was taken, you will
probably be amazed at how many similar scenes you
will find.
When you find a mother tree and
children, look for these things:
-
Two different kinds of “leaves” on the trees.
-
Signs of animal browse.
-
Children of different ages.
-
The berry-like fruit of the tree.
-
Birds eating the fruit and nesting in the trees.

To locate this season’s mystery, you will either
have to be very familiar with every nook and cranny
of Havenwoods OR you will need to understand the
Public Land Survey System. To get credit for solving
the mystery, take a piece of paper and a pencil with
you when you go exploring. When you find the section
center marker, place the paper on top of the metal
disk and rub over it with the side of your pencil.
Your rubbing should look something like the sketch
below. To read the

Is it an
old-fashioned keyhole? A mystery tunnel? Where does
it lead? These are all good questions. However, to
answer this season's mystery photo, you need to say
where the photo was taken at Havenwoods, what year
the structure was built, and why it was built. The
last question is somewhat of a trick question
because I’m not sure I will know if you are right or
not! To read the answer to this mystery,

We know that someone planted
this magnificent tree, because it is not growing in
its native range. When you find it, try to guess how
old it is. We may never know for sure, because the
trunk is hollow, but we can guess its age based on
the diameter of the trunk and the type of tree it
is. To find out where the tree is at Havenwoods,
what type of tree it is, and how old it is,
