This sign is located at Nelson Ledges State Park on Nelson Ledge Road (Route 282) near Nelson Township in Portage County, Ohio. The sign is next to the parking area, near the bathrooms. It was placed there by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. The sign describes the flora in the park, including wildflowers, trees, and ferns. Some of the flora described are rare for this part of the country. The sign explains how the rock formations, which create a cooler temperature, allow for trees and plants to grow which would typically only grow in cooler climates. The park includes numerous trails on which visitors can view the flora. It is recommended that visitors stay on the trails, as there are many dangerous drop-offs throughout the park.
