HEMLOCK FORESTS - MARKER #6  

     The hemlock forest is one of several distinct tree communities in the Smokies. Hemlocks prefer a cooler, more moist environment than some of the other trees. Many hemlocks under certain conditions reach 5 to 6 feet in diameter. In the summertime the hemlock forest offers cooling relief from the sun. In the winter the greens and gray of the rock are set off beautifully against freshly fallen snow. This area becomes a winter wonderland in the winter.
