This forest of ancient maple trees is named for the color that the leaves turn for a few weeks every year in autumn. The place is especially beautiful at that time of year on a sunny day, when the sunlight shines through the leaves and casts a soft yellow light beneath the canopy. This forest is practically devoid of food except for a few grassy clearings, but countless tiny streams provide water. There are a few large hazel trees that provide food for small rodents, which attract the only predator to frequent the forest: red foxes.
