| Organisms: | red maple |
| Location: | Paul Smith Experimental Forest |
| Description: | Opening made by severe windstorms in 1950 and 1954. Nearly all of the 60-80-year-old red maples are severely affected by heart rot at each overgrown limb; they have been poisoned to release the softwoods. If the young maples developing in the opening are not controlled, they will someday duplicate the present overstory condition. |

eastern spruce beetle red spruce |
| Location: | Paul Smith Experimental Forest |
| Description: | Some of the oldest and largest red spruce in this area. On a similar, nearby area, two hurricanes within an 8-year period destroyed 20 sq. feet of basal area of spruce. The eastern spruce beetle population probably built up in the windfall and they now are attacking and killing some large spruce like these. |
