I am sorry, but the tree-among-the-forest idea doesn't tie in with this: "As for the school: he alone knew where in Hogwarts he had stowed the Horcrux, because he alone had plumbed the deepest secrets of that place..." (page 444 of the British edition).
Ack! Is that Voldy-vision? I remembered that explanation, but I thought it was something that Harry had given to Ron and Hermione.
I suppose it's just another case of Rowling shooting herself in the foot--without that little gem, we could still explain away the idiocy.
which of course is beyond idiotic as he saw all the junk hidden there and must have realized someone else had put it there.
Heck, even Harry realized that other people were responsible for all the junk.
