Page 2 Unanticipated Tasks By David Brown, DSF Supervisor Working for the NC Division of Forest Resources (DFR) involves a large variety of tasks. Some like fighting fire, marking timber or diagnosing in- sect and disease problems are things one would anticipate doing when working in the forestry profession. Occasionally there are tasks that are outside the norm, but never the less, necessary. Since coming to DuPont State Forest in 2002, I have dealt with a few unan- ticipated tasks. The first was disassembling a pool table. After my wife and I moved into the DSF cottage we decided we did not need the pool table in the basement. It was offered to other DFR units, and the Training Facility in Kinston was the recipient. The only way to get it out the door and loaded onto a trailer was to take it apart. After a brief discussion with a pool table manufacturer, I discovered that taking a pool table apart was not too complicated. Dealing with fatalities in a State Forest is a dreaded task, and not something I anticipated when entering the forestry profession in 1971. In the past five years we have had three. One was the result of a heart attack. The other two occurred when visitors slipped and fell, one at Wintergreen Falls and the other at Triple Falls. I am indebted to my staff for the very capable and professional man- ner in which they responded to these incidents. Recently I was met with another unanticipated task - investigating a grave robbery. There are two graveyards in DSF, Thomas Cemetery and Moore Cemetery. Both date back to the 1800s. On August 29 th I received a call from a man that had visited Moore Cemetery near Hooker Falls, and reported he found an open grave. Richard Banks and I responded to the scene. The full length and width of Clinton Moore’s grave had been excavated to a depth of five feet. The crime was reported to the Transylvania County Sheriff’s Department, and Lieutenant Jeff Smith responded. Evidence was collected, and three individuals were arrested on Sep- tember 4. On August 30 th Clinton Moore, originally buried in 1905, was re-interred by Frank Cubero, Roberta Belcher and Alvin Barnwell. I feel sure that is not a task they anticipated when they left for work that morning. Keep up to date with more events sponsored by the Friends of DuPont Forest by going to www.dupontforest.com.

Meet at Lake Imaging at 9 a.m. (Note the change in date, place and time from that listed in last January’s newsletter calendar). Sturdy shoes, long pants and a cap are advisable since they ward off poison ivy, ticks and the sun. If you have an orange vest and grabber, bring them. Our supply is based on first come, first serve. You've all done so well in the past. On July 14, twenty-one people from FODF and the Carolina Conservancy cleared the roadsides of thirty-nine bags of garbage, two plastic pails filled with mystery guck and an old hi-fi turntable. Sightings were noted of one copperhead, a rather large rat and several ticks clinging to their unwel- coming hosts. We were and are a determined crew! Sad but true, the roadsides are filling up again. Educa- tion and persistence is the key.

In the wild they can live to 12 years or older and can attain weights of 30 pounds. They can easily bring down a grown deer. Bobcats are the most abundant wildcat in the United States and they have the greatest range of all native North American cats. Males are referred to as “toms,” females as “queens,” and the young are called “kittens.” A group of bobcats is called a “clowder.” Bobcat lays claim to deer carcass Though bobcats prefer to eat rabbits, they will hunt a variety of things including insects, chickens, small rodents, deer, and geese and other birds. They prefer to kill their own prey but, as can be seen in the accompanying photos, they will also come to my Golden Eagle photo site in the DSRF that is baited with road- killed deer.

  • Geology of Dupont State Forest and the Standingstone Mountain Quadrangle, SC and NC
    The 25th Annual David S. Snipes/Clemson Hydrogeology Symposium Field Trip Guidebook Geology of Dupont State Forest and the Standingstone Mountain Quadrangle, SC and NC Triple Falls, Dupont State Forest, NC Field Trip Leaders: Jack Garihan and Scott Brame April 5 and 7, 2017 Overview of the Geology of Standingstone Mountain Quadrangle, South Carolina and North Carolina John M. Garihan, Earth and Environmental Sciences Department, Furman University, Greenville, SC 20613 Introduction Standingstone Mountain 7.5-minute quadrangle (SM) is situated within the rugged part of the western Inner Piedmont. Its southern portion lies across the North Carolina-South Carolina state line at the Eastern Continental Divide (~3000 foot elevation). The escarpment of the Blue Ridge Front winds its way across the southern margin of SM, with lines of impressive exfoliation domes (balds) formed on Table Rock gneiss. Balds that are developed on more feldspathic Henderson Gneiss are less common. The highest elevations in SM are 3600 - 3700 feet; local relief across this rugged landscape is 1400 - 2000 feet. Jones Gap State Park in South Carolina and the Dupont State Forest in North Carolina provide public access to the scenic landscape of the region via extensive hiking and horseback riding trails. Five Paleozoic fault-bound crystalline sheets occur in the Inner Piedmont in Standingstone Mountain quadrangle (Figure 1). Stacked structurally lowest to highest, northwest to southeast, they involve: 1) Henderson Gneiss, Sheet I; 2) Chauga River Formation (muscovite-biotite-feldspar- quartz gneiss and schist, with a siltstone protolith), Sheet II; 3) Henderson Gneiss, sheet III; 4) Table Rock gneiss of the Walhalla nappe, Sheet IV; and 5) Poor Mountain and Tallulah Falls Formations of the Six Mile thrust sheet, Sheet V.
