Bear Mountain Conservation Area encompasses high quality wildlife habitat in including habitat for Peregrine falcons, climate change resilient land, and seasonal streams and rills, and several vernal pools. It provides hiking, snowshoeing, nature observation, and education opportunities, and it encompasses part of a popular snowmobile trail maintained by the Alexandria Ledge Climbers Snowmobile Club.
Conservation of this 80-acre parcel in 2022 has resulted in the protection of over 200 contiguous acres on the slopes of Bear Mountain overlooking Newfound Lake. We are extraordinarily grateful to the generous donors, including the John Gemmill Newfound Fund, and local volunteers whose dedication to conservation in the Newfound Watershed made it possible for LRCT to acquire this land.
