Forest Health Monitoring is a national program designed to determine the status, changes and trends in indicators of forest health on an annual basis. This program collects information from a wide variety of sources including ground surveys, aerial detection and remote sensing. Forest Health Monitoring data is utilized by researchers who use it in detailed investigations into specific issues, by managers who develop strategies to deal with forest health issues, and by the public at large in order to better understand the processes that drive these natural systems. Forest Health Monitoring provides an updated synopsis of the state of our nation's forested lands, and serves as the repository of records regarding forest condition over time.

Although usually packed with tourists, walking through the towering tunnels of bamboos is just one of those things that you have to experience for yourself. In the wind the trees crack eerily, and hearing this odd sound is a reason to visit in itself. In fact, this sound is included in the ‘100 Soundscapes of Japan.’ This is just one of the spots you’d add on your list of ‘places to see before I die.’ If you want to avoid the crowds of tourists, head over with your TripMates in early morning or during the week.
This Deadvlei or ‘dead marsh’ makes for one of the most unique forests in the world. This dreamlike scenery of trees blackened by the sun against the dunes almost makes for an alien-like experience. The contrasts of the landscape also make this one of the best spots for photographers.
No one quite knows how the oddly shaped trees in Crooked Forest came to be, but our guess is that these trees just had a little bit too much to drink. If you’re looking for an excursion in Europe to some unique destinations, gather up your like-minded TravelMates and create a trip to some peculiar destinations!
