Griffy Lake and vicinity

This area contains the Griffy site of Indiana University's Research and Teaching Preserve as well as a lot of land owned by the city of Bloomington. Its proximity to Bloomington makes it a popular area for hiking, fishing, etc., but luckily it's still easy to find areas without heavy traffic. I visited the Griffy RTP once a week or so from late summer in 2002 until the summer of 2004, and many of my Indiana plant pictures are from this area.
