You can’t have fall foliage without the forests, and you wouldn’t be able to experience the forest without public access. We need to keep our forests as forests. We need guaranteed public access so everyone can see beauty like this. 🧡

Bob Chase was an ordinary man who cared a whole lot about this extraordinary place. Thanks to Bob we can all enjoy the magic of fall at Bald Pate Mountain Preserve.

Bob was one of a handful of people who founded Loon Echo while sitting around a kitchen table in 1987. Over 30 years and 8,000 acres later, never doubt that when you believe in something, you can make the world a better place. 💚

Smoke sun. 🔥 #nofilter

The effects of climate change are being felt across the globe, and acutely in the western United States right now. Conservation is an important tool in combatting climate change. Well managed forests store carbon, produce wood products, keep streams clear and cool, provide habitat and migration corridors for wildlife. Not to mention the incredible benefits they offer our communities.

Let’s work together to keep the forests we have as forests, yeah? You in? The solution starts in your community. Find your local land trust. Ask them what you can do to make sure your local forests are protected. 🌲
