Conservation of the Bald Mountain Property in the Ossipee Mountains

LRCT is currently working to conserve a remote, wild, and pristine 157-acre parcel on Bald Mountain in the northern Ossipee Mountains. This project will expand LRCT's Ossipee Mountain Preserve, bringing LRCT's total conserved acreage in the Ossipees to over 8,575 acres. Conservation of this property will fill an important gap in the Ossipee Mountains land already conserved by LRCT and other organizations and individuals. This project also contributes to efforts to preserve significant wildlife habitat in the Ossipee Mountains and the corridor connecting the Ossipees to the White Mountains.
