So recently I was doing some research using historical map data to find undisturbed forests in Niagara, and I visited my first one today. It has a great arrangement of native flora as well as some seriously mature trees. I was happy to upload all the observations but I was realizing how infested the area is in Poison Ivy! Thankfully i was dressed for the occasion and have a natural immunity to the plant, but I was wondering if there would be a way of notifying other naturalists looking to explore that there is a large amount(almost impassable) of poison ivy.

I wonder if the best way would be to just make several observations of poison ivy in the area, and you can add notes explaining the extent of the poison ivy to your observations.

People who have had bad reactions to it (me) can spot it a mile away
