The tangible benefits—
food, wood, carbon
storage—are not the
only ones. Immersing
oneself in woods, or

“forest bathing,” has

been shown by scien-

tists to reduce mental

and physical stress. At

Camp Adventure, visi-

tors ascend a spiraling

150-foot-high board-

walk to get a fresh

perspective on trees—

and perhaps on life.
