Take a hike with us at NCLT's newest conservation area
Sat, Aug 31, 2024; 10-11:30 am
Join Anna Wilkins, Director of Conservation and Climate, for a guided hike at the newly-protected Monomonac Hill Conservation Area! The partnership project that worked to protect 194-acre conservation area was significantly assisted by the participation of both the WSLA and MLPOA. We invite all members of the lake associations to join us for this members-only (and their friends) event. Anna will lead hikers out-and-back on the Kinglet's Caper trail to a scenic viewpoint and will point out interesting plants and critters, discuss future plans, and highlight the impact of protecting Monomonac Hill.
The hike is approximately 1 mile each way, 2 miles total. The trail is natural, with small roots and rock and the terrain is a gentle uphill one way and downhill back. Dogs on leash welcome. Family friendly. Meet at the Trailhead on Lakeview Drive.
Attendees are encouraged to dress appropriately for the weather and outdoor conditions. Please come prepared with a bottle of water, sun protection, and bug spray.

Drawdown Notice
October 15, 2023
Reminder to all that the annual drawdown starts Oct 15, and will continue until the winter draw down level of 3 feet on or around December 1st.
The drop in the water level during the winter months allows property owners to do maintenance to their waterfront, including docks, walls, and beaches. It also helps with weed control.
