The stump is what remains of the former state champion Osage Orange (#050), which was destroyed by fire in 2007. The remaining tree is a sibling of the original Osage Orange, and it is a candidate for a future Treasure Tree designation.

This tree was spared during construction of the church campus, and still displays the original Treasure Tree tag. 请尊重教会财产，并注意任何可能发生的教会活动!  

5. Continue from here 3.在西糖溪路和内文路向南9英里，直到你到达彩带步道自然保护区的小停车场. 所有的小道都从笔直的Hoyt Hinson小道开始，这条小道通向池塘. After about a quarter mile, 穿过池塘之间，继续穿过大松树的走廊. Just before you reach the massive White Oak in the clearing, look to the right in the edge of the woods to see the big Post Oak (#110). 

6. After viewing the Post Oak and the White Oak, 继续沿着霍伊特·欣森小径向北走，直到到达山毛榉小径. Turn right onto this trail, and you will soon walk into the American Beech Grove (088). Along the trail, 你会发现一个解释性的标记，识别出大片成熟的山毛榉树林. 沿着山毛榉步道一直走到霍伊特·欣森步道, and then return back to the parking lot the way you came in. 

7. 从Ribbonwalk停车场向左转回到Nevin路，然后继续.经过斯泰茨维尔路和老斯泰茨维尔路8英里到日落路4541号的丹尼餐厅. The restaurant is just across I-77 on the right side of the road. Park on the left side of the building, and you can't miss the giant Bur Oak (#032) that sits between the parking lot and Banner Elk Drive. 这是梅克伦堡县现存最大的原始宝藏树之一.

1. 在导游带领下参观完这座历史悠久的房子后，走到后面的右角，观看 Green Ash (#004)它位于住宅和停车场之间的景观区域的中间. 而这棵原始的珍威尼斯官方网站最初被鉴定为绿灰, it was later determined to be a White Ash. The tree still has its original Treasure Tree tag on it.
