Ora E. Anderson Nature Trail
The Rutherford Wetland includes the Ora E. Anderson Nature Trail. This wetland is 20 acres and is located on the Athens Ranger District, just west of the community of Carbon Hill in eastern Hocking County, Ohio. When it was suggested that we could provide wildlife viewing opportunity by developing a half-mile accessible foot trail in collaboration with partners and the local community, the Forest elected to develop the trail in honor of Ora E. Anderson. The project includes interpretive panels featuring some of the poems from Anderson with illustrations by local artist, Barbara Sheriff Kostohyrz.
