In deep shade near the ground, oaks sometimes produce unusually large leaves, to catch more of the scant sunlight. These leaves look like the seven dwarfs from a Waft Disney movie. You may also see many wildflowers, such as blackberry, horsemint, fire pink, and false dandelion. The Venus' looking glass is purple, the wild rose bright magenta. Flowering spurge has tiny white flowers.
Fleabane daisy is also white and slightly larger.
Wild sweet William and Ohio horsemint add to the joy of seeing spring flowers. Lovers Leap is located near a section marker placed by a Forest Service crew in 1974. At this spot a few huge rock slabs jut into the air. You may carefully walk on top of them and enjoy a spectacular view of the hardwood forest underneath. Sighting of a tall tree which houses a rookery of great blue herons is but one of the many treats this remote wooded area provides.
