Water quality is critical. Plan for wildlife habitat as well as human habitat. Berries, etc. transmitted through droppings. Wetlands are important for bears. Applauds range's efforts to help kids etc, but is concerned about looking at range's wetlands too much.
Environment here is second to none.
Babysitter trees near wetland are important also. Forest practices will affect wildlife. A bear can move from Bolton Mountain to the Winooksi River without meeting people. Has seen moose appear, and turkeys in last few years. Want to encourage rural-based economies, such as forestry.
