Little Concord Pond on the way up Bald Mountain with a skim of ice, by David Preston
The Speckled Mountain parcel was part of an early Land for Maine’s Future (LMF) project that included multiple parcels totaling 37,000 acres. This 64-acre tract, near state park land that the Bureau of Parks and Lands holds around Little Concord Pond in Woodstock, includes a portion of the Bald-Speckled Mountain trail on the west slope of Speckled Mountain. The addition enhances the Park’s scenic and recreational value.
Please note: Walking/hiking are permitted around Little Concord Pond and on the Speckled Mountain parcel, but traditional access is over private property and is not guaranteed. Respectful use of this access is required, recognizing the landowner’s generosity.
