    Interim Recreation Management Plan Santa Clara Conservation Easement Franklin County

    Interim Recreation Management Plan Santa Clara Conservation Easement Franklin County New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Division of Lands & Forests Region 5 - Ray Brook June, 2000 SECTION I Introduction In June of 1999 the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) completed one of its largest acquisition projects ever. Known as the Northern Flow River Corridors Project, the State acquired interests in 140,000 acres of lands through fee title acquisition and conservation easements. The objectives of this project are to preserve open space character, enhance public use of four northern flow river corridors ( Deer, Grasse, Oswegatchie, and St. Regis) and to sustain working landscapes of adjacent timberlands. Approximately 30,000 acres of land were acquired in fee and 110,000 acres in conservation easement from The Conservation Fund of Arlington, Virginia. These lands were formerly owned by the Champion International Corporation. The lands acquired in fee became part of the Forest Preserve with the only interests retained by the grantor being reserved rights of way. For those lands encumbered by a conservation easement, the Department acquired public recreation rights and development rights. The grantor retained fee title ownership and the right to manage the lands for the production of forest products. The Conservation Fund subsequently sold fee ownership and timber rights to Heartwood Forest Fund III of Chapel Hill, NC. Taxes are apportioned between the Department and the fee owner based on the rights or degree of interest held in the property, expressed as a percentage (%). The purchase comprises three non-contiguous blocks of land identified as the Santa Clara Tract, the Tooley Pond Tract, and the Croghan Tract.

  • 32. Switz Kill to East Berne

    32. Switz Kill to East Berne Feature: Cole Hill State Forest Distance: 9.00 miles USGS Map Quads: Westerlo Trail Conference Maps: none General Description This section of the Long Path is a pleasant blend of ski trails in the state forest, road walking and woodland trails. The Long Path leaves the valley of the Switz Kill and goes along Willsie Road to the top of Cole Hill, where it follows a series of recently constructed ski trails through a mature forest. There are views from Cole Hill, and the trail passes several beaver ponds that have the feeling of the Adirondacks. Past Cole Hill, the Long Path goes along public roads, with a view of the Catskills in the distance. Upon reaching the Doppler weather tower for the Albany region, the trail reenters the woods and begins a gradual descent through land that was once farmed. The Long Path passes through a field, crosses Joslyn Schoolhouse Road, and descends through a pine forest. It then crosses Fox Creek and finally emerges on NY Route 443. Access Take the New York State Thruway to Exit 22 (Selkirk). Turn right on NY Route 144, and continue south to NY Route 396. Turn right on Route 396 and follow it for 6 miles to South Bethlehem, where Route 396 ends and the road becomes Albany County Route 301.
