Picnic lunch was at Bewabic State Park hosted by International Paper.

International Paper owns and manages 570,000 acres of forest in the Quinnesec region. From their forestlands they provide the Quinnesec Paper mill with 1.5 million tons of wood annually.
On our tour we learned about their methods of selective harvesting in a fully regulated forest and how their forest practices are compliant with the Sustainable Forest Initiative.
