To that end, periodic timber harvesting has been conducted over the past several years, removing lower grade and mature timber in favor of higher quality mid-rotational trees. These harvests have been supplemented by several small wildlife clearings to enhance and broaden habitat diversity. A timber inventory was conducted in the late summer of 2017 with estimated total stocking of nearly 33 cords per forested acre. Major species include red maple, white pine, hemlock, spruce-fir, and sugar maple. Brighton Forest provides a truly unique opportunity to purchase a high-quality and well-stocked timberland parcel located in the heart of New Hampshire.
