LandVest is pleased to offer Stowe Mountain, a large contiguous tract of wild forestland totaling 3,364 acres, located in western Maine. The property abuts Grafton Notch State Park and the Mahoosucs Public Lands, an expansive 10,000-acre conservation area, with numerous high-elevation mountains, meandering rivers and streams, and an extensive trail network. A portion of the rugged, backcountry Grafton Notch Loop Trail crosses through the property, traversing the summits of Bald Mountain (2,600’), Stowe Mountain (2,700’) and Sunday River Whitecap (3,300’). The forest resource is typical of the region, dominated by northern hardwoods and spruce-fir. Overall stocking is approximately 69% hardwood and 31% softwood and averages 18 cords/commercial forested acre. The land is encumbered with a working forest conservation easement held by the State of Maine, with stated goals of protecting the property’s ecological values, water quality, soils, and wildlife habitat, while simultaneously allowing for ongoing sustainable forest management and public recreation. The easement includes 645 acres of Natural Area, along the Grafton Notch Loop Trail corridor, in which no timber harvesting is permitted. The balance of the acreage (2,719 acres) is identified as Timber Management Area. If you are looking for a long-term forest, carbon, climate resilience, recreation, or wildlife investment, we invite you to join us for a hike to explore this expansive forest, and perhaps become the next steward.
