Ramapo valley nature preserve

I went on a 1 and a half our walk in a local preserve near me. I was walking near a waterfall and a lake throughout the forest. I saw lots of small plants on the ground because of the trees of the forest not letting a lot of the light through. As I was walking through the woods a snake started to slither in front of my mom and I and i thought it would be a good idea to get a photo but then the snake turned its self towards me so i left it alone. Along the path I walked I saw some ferns and was seeing if I could find a sporophyte of the fern but I didn't have any luck. I got to say the walk was really hot because of the sun and the humidity of the forest wasn't helping. As my walk was coming to an end around more an hour and a half after entering the forest i saw something i thought to be some wine berries, which was cool because it was one of the things i had hoped to see in the forest. Over all I ended walking 3 miles and it was a great walk although my mom was scared of bears the whole time.
