!!! seems it only displays well the 2nd time? ugh.

Anthony Irving, Lyme Land Trust board member, Chairman of the Eightmile River Wild and Scenic Committee, and well-known ecologist, will lead a Talk and Walk at the new 125-acre parcel on Keeney Road in Lyme that was acquired by the State of Connecticut in 2017.  The preserved land has been incorporated into the existing 1,925-acre Nehantic State Forest to the south. The property has a unique topography, a product of glacial retreat from about 15,000 years ago. Some of the walk will be off trail. The walk is family friendly and will take about 2 hours.

For more information about the property, go to page 10 of the Summer 2017 newsletter.
