WINTHROP — The Kennebec Land Trust has updated it’s “Take a Hike Guide.”
The update to the 2014 edition features 50 miles of trails and includes 12 new properties, as well as updates to the trails and maps featured in the 2014 edition. The 32 conservation properties include hilltop and shoreline land, as well as lake islands. Each page features a unique property and includes directions, a map showing trails and lake access points, and recommended public uses and recreational opportunities.
The publication of “Take a Hike!” was made possible by the time and expertise of LPK of Cincinnati, Ohio. LPK is committed to social responsibility and advancing the goals of sustainability. Mort Libby (1937-2017), former CEO of LPK, was a founding member of the land trust. His wife, Barbara, is an East Winthrop summer resident and a long-time member of the KLT Advisory Board.
Maine author Robert Kimber calls the guide, “Your passport to more than 32 gem landscapes close to home: forests, meadows, hill country, lands bordering on lakes, ponds, and streams -˗ all right here in central Maine.”
Landowners who have cooperated with the Kennebec Land Trust to protect the land by sale or donation to KLT, or by conservation easement held by the trust, have ensure the property is protected for all time and is open to the public to enjoy.
The trust also thanks the Wabanaki who live on the lands today, as they have for untold generations and whose dedication and care for them we would do well to emulate, Kimber said.
