This property spans over 600 acres with several thousand feet of shoreline dedicated to the responsible use and enjoyment by the public. The property includes most of the western shore of Heald Pond, access to the southern shores of Bradley Pond, and much of Whiting Hill and Flat Hill. Most of the property is upland bordered by route 5 on the west and Slab City road on the south with some riparian environment between Bradley and Heald Ponds and limited wetlands.
There are several miles of well marked hiking trails that lead to views from the tops of both Whiting Hill and Flat Hill as well as access to both ponds. There is a separate parking lot located just east of Mill Brook off Slab City Road (with maps and a Kiosk), two points of access with limited parking off route 5, as well as a separate parking lot and Kiosk off Heald Pond Road that provides access to the Flat Hill and Bradley Pond area. The forest has been worked hard for many years, but supports a wide variety of mammal species. Bear, deer, moose, otter, and beaver have been seen on the property and signs of bobcat and coyote are also present.
Please forward any new observations to Dennis Smith, GLLT Database Administrator.
