General commentsPart of the Montezuma NWF, Howland's Island is a multi-use public property. The land area is broken up by several large ponds, swamps, meadows, fields and cattail marshes. Most of the forested land contains even-aged hardwood stands, though a few very large and old specimens can be found.
