405 acres may be leased (sugar bush) or purchased . "Bolton Forest" is a pristine northern hard wood forest with approximately 10,000 maples and numerous yellow and white birch mixed with beech, oak and cherry. Plentiful firewood (apx 3900 cords according to our management plan). In 2009 our forest land use plan estimated ape 280,000 of timber/wood on the property. No timber or wood harvesting has been performed since the early 1990s when focal harvesting was completed on northern areas. A wood lot or private hunting ground or maple syrup farm are possible. Older wood fired maple syrup evaporator and some tubing and taps may be included. Outdoor adventure retreat. Amazing back country skiing or nordic skiing potential. Perfect for hiking, snow shoeing, wildlife. Our neighbor to the southeast (Bolton Valley Ski Resort) was able to permit and place a productive wind mill on a hill side which produces approximately 300,000 kilowatt hours of power annually
