The southern ridge offers a long, flat top, with wide views in many directions. Overall, terrain is moderate, with some steep slopes along streams and at the eastern end. Operability for forest management can be considered very good with quality trails throughout.

A species composition of nearly 100% hardwood prevails; however, some red spruce and hemlock stems are present at the propertys eastern peak and along the two streams.Total species composition is mostly sugar maple (75%), with yellow birch, white ash, beech and miscellaneous other species as associates. Sawlog volume is an impressive 86% sugar maple. Capital Timber Value has recently been established at $291,000.

The property offers an opportunity for sugarbush development, given the high level of maple stocking and downhill slope to the access point. The timber data indicate a total maple potential tap count of 9,885 taps with nearly all taps from sugar maple. Trees from the 10 size class and greater were considered, providing an average of 61 taps/acre, covering 162.1 commercial acres.
