Northeast Wilderness Trust holds forever-wild easements on six Salisbury Association Land Trust Preserves, totaling 682 acres.
The six protected preserves are Pope, Yoakum, Mitchell Shostak, Belter Lime Rock, Dark Hollow, and Railroad Ramble. These properties are mostly core forest in an area of high climate resiliency. They harbor a rich variety of wildlife and plants including many rare species.
These lands fall within the “Greens to Hudson Highlands” wildlife linkage, identified by the Staying Connected Initiative. Three of the preserves are adjacent to the Appalachian Trail corridor: Pope, Belter Lime Rock, and Shostak.
