New Look on Cabot Plains Road

As you head west after the intersection of Cabot Plains Road and Bolton Road, at the Plains School House, you'll see a nice sugar woods on your right. Immediately following that stand of maples used to be a fairly densly forrested stretch with a mix of evergreens and hardwoods, and scrub brush. This has been harvested during the winter, with much of it turned into wood chips. It is the Labree property, and although I don't know for certain, I suspect Ms. Labree decided to cut off the timber after the devastating Thanksgiving Day wind storm of 2004. Many land owners in the area are still cleaning up after that erratic storm. Above are pictures taken in January showing some of the lumbering going on.
