Join us for a walk in Montville where Midcoast Conservancy protects 1700 acres of contiguous land in the Sheepscot headwaters.
We’ll walk the Bog Brook Trail via the Eric Bruun Trail. This 2.7-mile hike goes through some of the area’s impressive mature forest including a stand of 200-300 years old hemlock trees. Most of these conserved lands are protected as forever wild and play a vital role in forest health. We’ll talk about this as well as the importance of older forests.
Join former Midcoast Conservancy Board President, Buck O’Herin, for this moderately challenging hike. Meet at the Whitten Hill trailhead on the Halldale Rd.
This event will take place rain or shine.
