Rinker-Steele Natural Area
http://www.hanoverconservancy.org/lands/rinkersteele/
The Natural Area protects old growth forest, fragile soils on steep slopes, and the water quality of Camp Brook, as well as trail connections to nearby Ferguson Field, Storrs Pond Recreation Area, and Oak Hill. The towering hemlocks and pines offer resting habitat to birds migrating along the Connecticut River. Glens and moist pockets feature maidenhair fern and other delicate understory plants.
