43 acres
conservation easement
2007

This was the third conservation easement between the Fishing Creek Sportsmen’s association and NPC to assure public access to Fishing Creek . Two and one-half miles south of Stillwater on the east side of Fishing Creek; the unpaved parking area is accessed from a township road near Zaners Bridge. The protected property contains over 1,000 feet of frontage on the stream; its woodland, which has a management plan written by a forester, shades the stream. The abandoned grade of the historic Bloomsburg and Sullivan Railroad borders the property for approximately 2,500 feet. The railroad carried passengers and freight between Bloomsburg and the village of Jamison City at the base of North Mountain.
