  • 2.08 acres
  • 12/98
  • (L)

By granting a conservation easement on two acres of land, Chris and Janice Cundey made 42 more acres more accessible for public recreation.

The location of these 2.08 acres gives the public safe off-road parking and hiking access to all these protected lands from the road. Under the easement, Ausbon Sargent has the right to develop and improve a trail network on both properties.Read more
