The Nature Conservancy acquires 12,000-plus acres in Minnesota’s Lake County

In mid-October, The Nature Conservancy announced it had acquired 12,271 acres of forested land on the outskirts of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness to preserve for public access.
“These large opportunities to take conservation to the next level are rare, and we were excited to be in a position in this moment to be able to take advantage of this one,” said Ann Mulholland, The Nature Conservancy’s chapter director for Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota.
