The natural area lies adjacent to Splitrock
Reservoir and supports a mature mixed oak hardwood forest
characteristic of the Highlands physiographic province. Tall
red, white and black oaks dominate the forest canopy, which
also serves as habitat for the endangered red-shouldered hawk
and threatened barred owl. Numerous trails cross the natural
area.
