Brooks Memorial Arboretum
located in Hillsboro, West Virginia
There's actually not too much information available about the Brooks Memorial Arboretum, except that it's loacted in Watoga State Park in West Virginia. In fact, I had to go print out a park map since they don't even talk about it on Watoga's website. The state park spans over 10,000 acres and was originally a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp. The arboretum is located in the northern part of the park and is surrounded by the "Honey Bee Trail" and is intersected by the "Dragon Draft Trail".
I've heard that the types of trees containted in the arboretum include Cottonwoods, Ohio Buckeyes and Yellow Poplar.
