How are the woods near the Troutt home important to Rosamary in the novel, Where the Dead Sit Talking?

For Rosemary, the woods near the Troutt home are a place of safety and refuge for her, a place where she can be alone and deal (or at least try to deal) with the difficulties in her life. When she takes Sequoyah there, she is sharing a key part of herself with him, but at the same time cannot resist mocking him for not being as adventurous as she thinks he should be. Later in the narrative, when Rosemary has disappeared, the woods is one of the first places that he looks, but he is unable to find her. After her death, he constructs a kind of tribute to her at the place in the woods where she felt safest - at least as he understood it.
