Hungry Deer at Balch Hill

Bambi, we’re watching you! The effects of snacking deer are being measured at Balch Hill in a cooperative Conservancy/ College project. After just one year, results are significant.

Historic Landscape Renewed

If you haven’t been to Balch Hill lately, you’re missing all the action! Check out our progress in restoring this historic agricultural landscape, with the help of Hudson Forestry and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. MORE

Spring trips are now done for the season. Current Conservancy members will receive our announcement of fall trips near the end of August.

Geology of the South Esker – Sunday

Come along on Sunday, June 16, 9-10:30am – Hike back in time to when a mile-thick glacier moved over Hanover, followed by an icy lake. Today, beautiful trails along the Connecticut River take us past the esker left behind. Join us for a family-friendly trip through a towering riverside forest.  Meet: Trailhead off Pine Knoll Cemetery Road. Leader:   Dartmouth Earth Sciences Professor Carl Renshaw. Level: Easy.

Mink Brook bridge as good as new

Thanks to the volunteers who came out on Upper Valley Trails Day to help Bill Knight repair and stabilize our beautiful bridge. Next up – a new round of activity at our Balch Hill Natural Area, where we are working under a cost-share grant from the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service to restore habitat and this historic agricultural landscape. Wider views will be the reward for human visitors!
