Twenty Mont Alto forestry students participated in the Oak Road cleanup in the Michaux forest near campus yesterday. The most unusual item we found this year was a small truck hood and two tires.
After the work was done everyone went to Arturo's for pizza!

Use A Map
This is a new tool I found on the Ogle Earth Blog . Simply put, use a map lets you create a map location with a simple link address. When you click on the link you then have the option of viewing the map in Google, Yahoo, or MS Live. With new features you can also add pictures and other annotations.
Here is a map I made for Peaks Island, Maine: http://useamap.com/peaks
Here is another for the Penn State Mont Alto campus: http://useamap.com/MontAlto
It's easy to use and a great way to send maps to someone.

Zooming towards the fnish
I'm not sure who this was? But it was definitely sub-zero on the tubing course last night (2-5-07). You really needed to dress up. What a great stress reliever! We should do it before exams all winter long.
Here's a link to Whitetail in Mercersburg, where they have more pictures. http://www.skiwhitetail.com/index.htm

First Forestry Club Meeting of the Spring 2007 Semester
UPDATES FOR TUBING:
For those who were unable to attend the Forestry Club meeting there are some updates to the activities calender.
On February 5th, there will be a trip to Whitetail Area to use the Tubing passes that some Forestry Club members have obtained. Being a Forestry Club Member is not a requirement to go, and if anyone else wishes to attend the night of fun to go tubing, passes can be purchased at the time of arrival to the Whitetail Area. The cost for 1 hour is $12 and 2 hours is $16. The bus will depart from the commuter lot at 7pm, so if you decide to go at the last minute, just meet in the commuter lot. We will be tubing for 2 hours, but not everyone has to tube for 2 hours. Those who do not want to tube for the full 2 hours can check out the lodge and hangout until we leave. There is no need to R.S.V.P. just show up at the time of departure in the commuter lot.
On February 8th, the Forestry Club will hold their next meeting at 7:30pm.
On February 10th, the Forestry Club and Woodsmens Team will be teaming up to cut firewood to raise money for the clubs. The time is unknown at this point, but updates will be coming soon.
The last topic discussed at the meeting was the Allegheny SAF 2007 Winter Meeting to be held February 13-15. Those who are SAF student members and would like to attend the SAF Meeting please see Doctor Linehan for a Schedule. For any other questions feel free to email, and your questions will be answered as well as possible.
