Walking Charlotte

The group walked Lake Charlotte this last Sunday. We parked farther south on Forrest Park Road and walked in. Jay and I trekked to the top at 1015 feet overlooking I-285. We could see both east and west boundaries from there. It’s very rocky but not stratified, bit strange.
We saw gnawed deer antlers and box turtle shells, some wildflowers, lots of fungi and lichens. The gallery is the walk. Identification comes later.

Most guides show leaves more pointed than this but the veining and leaf pattern seem the same.

Pores had not developed but the spore sacs are medium brown and I couldn’t see the base without disturbing them
