Details on Baltimore Corner

This preserve is located on the Delmarva Peninsula so it is very flat.  There is a large pond or "Delmarva Bay" on the preserve and the rest is a mixed hardwood forest.  The boundaries are in fairly good shape but some lines were last walked in 1996 so these will need work. 

Some of the challenges at this preserve include swampy wet terrain, greenbrier, chiggers and ticks.  The best time to do boundary work will be the late fall and winter when leaves are down, visibility is good and the ticks have died off.  

Roadsides adjacent to our preserves are often the site of dumping of household trash or deer carcasses.  We have not had a big problem with this at Baltimore Corner but it could happen.  While unsightly and upsetting, this seldom has an ecological impact on the property so we often can't respond very quickly.
