The Foster-Blake Woods Preserve is exceptionally beautiful, hosting shoreline cliffs and a mature northern hardwood forest. It features a hiking and cross-country skiing trail that takes advantage of the variety of habitats as well as the river front view that the property has to offer.
A mature Northern Hardwood Forest provides views from rocky bluffs overlooking the St. Lawrence River islands, while pockets of mixed shrub land and hardwoods are scattered across the property. This provides excellent bird habitat for both nesting and foraging, as well as providing ample cover for small mammals and upland game birds.
