Recently, the Northwood High school 's Advance Biology class took a survey of the Eastern Hemlocks in the Totagatic Highlands around Frog Creek. From the trees surveyed there was seventy-one point seven percent living and twenty-eight point three percent dead. Which is a very good ratio. So far the D.N.R. are doing a good job with this unique forest.         The Eastern Hemlock of the Totagatic Highlands are in good shape as of this …showed first 75 words of 445 total…

…showed last 75 words of 445 total…could make some hiking and mountain bike trails through the forest to increase public use. I think that this great forest is not being used to it's full potential.         As you can see there are to many young trees dying and if there is not any action taken soon there might not be any Totagatic Highlands of Frog Creek in the near future. All there will be is dead hemlocks laying of the forest floor.
