Information board on the Kuiperberg - close view
The Kuiperberg is a 71 meters high hill in the Dutch province Overijssel, Twente, Dinkelland. It is part of a moraine, formed during the Saale Glaciation, a geologic time period that Lasted from 238 tot 126 thousand years ago. The moraine stretched from Ootmarsum till Uelsen in Germany. It's of big geologic and geomorphologic importance.

Bocht van de rivier de Dinkel met uitgeholde zandoever
Rivier de Dinkel en Dinkeldal. Henry zegt hierover: "De rivier de Dinkel stroomt tussen de stuwwal van Ootmarsum en de stuwwal van Oldenzaal. Sedimenten die in de laatste 130.000 jaar door wind en rivieren zijn afgezet worden door de rivier de Dinkel weer aangesneden en afgevoerd. In het Lutterszand heeft de Dinkel diep ingesneden in zijn eigen sedimenten. " River Dinkel and Dinkel Valley, nature reserve Lutterzand in De Lutte, the Netherlands - Province Twente. The River Dinkel streams between the moraine of Ootmarsum and the moraine of Oldenzaal. It's an active, freely meandering river. Sediments that in the past 130.000 years were deposited by wind and rivers are broached again and deported by the Dinkel. In the Lutterzand Nature reserve, the Dinkel has cut in deeply in its own sediments, revealing several historic earth layers in its shores.

Juniperus, male branch with cones - close-up
Juniperus communis - close up of male cones.
Juniperus vegetation in the Lutterzand, de Lutte, the Netherlands
Juniperus communis is a small coniferous evergreen tree or shrub, very variable in form, ranging from 10 m (33 ft)—rarely 16 m (52 ft)—tall to a low, often prostrate spreading shrub in exposed locations. It has needle-like leaves, green with a single white stomatal band on the inner surface. It is dioecious, with male and female cones, which are wind pollinated, on separate plants.
The fruit are berry-like cones, initially green, ripening in 18 months to purple-black with a blue waxy coating. The seeds are dispersed when birds eat the cones, digesting the fleshy scales and passing the hard, unwinged seeds in their droppings. The male cones are yellow, 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long, and fall soon after shedding their pollen in March–April.
Juniperus communis has the largest geographical range of any woody plant, with a circumpolar distribution throughout the cool temperate Northern Hemisphere from the Arctic south in mountains to around 30°N latitude in North America, Europe and Asia. Relict populations can be found in the Atlas Mountains of Africa (Source: Wikipedia)

It has needle-like leaves, green with a single white stomatal band on the inner surface. It is dioecious, with male and female cones, which are wind pollinated, on separate plants.
The fruit are berry-like cones, initially green, ripening in 18 months to purple-black with a blue waxy coating. The seeds are dispersed when birds eat the cones, digesting the fleshy scales and passing the hard, unwinged seeds in their droppings. The male cones are yellow, 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long, and fall soon after shedding their pollen in March–April.
Juniperus communis has the largest geographical range of any woody plant, with a circumpolar distribution throughout the cool temperate Northern Hemisphere from the Arctic south in mountains to around 30°N latitude in North America, Europe and Asia. Relict populations can be found in the Atlas Mountains of Africa (Source: Wikipedia)
