"A portion of the mountain adjoining this track has been planted with firs in 1847, which, together with some of the islands planted the same year, gives a pleasing variety to the otherwise wild scenery of this locality ; and where eagles and wild geese (as Richardson states) used to frequent about a century ago. the sweet notes of feathered songsters of the grove may now be heard."
