Timber Harvest Tour at Molly Stark State Park

Past event
Jan 8, 2016, 1 to 3:30 PM

Windham Regional Woodlands Association presents a tour led by Tim Morton, State Forester, and Long View Forest Contracting, of an active timber harvest at Molly Stark State Park in Wilmington. The harvest uses a combination of harvest machine felling and hand cutting designed to improve snowshoe hare habitat while being sensitive to trails and park infra-structure. Dress for winter conditions; bring snowshoes.

*Directions:*
From Brattleboro: Exit #2, I-91, 15 mi. west on VT Route 9
Parking at Molly Stark State Park is extremely limited in winter. Therefore, we will meet in the big parking lot on the north side of Route 9 that is just west of the Hogback Mountain Gift Shop and the old Skyline Restaurant. From the meeting place, we will car pool the mile-and-a-half to the tour site.

*RSVP to tim.morton@vermont.gov so he can
reschedule in case of bad weather or if the job hasn’t started yet.*
