People that use forests in fall enjoy a wealth of values. One treat reserved for hunters coming in late, firewood cutters finishing up after dark, and people hiking at night is "foxfire." Foxfire is a soft glow or light coming from the leaf-covered ground or dead wood. In other parts of the continent this light is called "will-o’-the-wisp" or "faerie fire."
