Dyer-Hutchinson, along with Winnick Woods and Cross Hill, make up nearly 200 acres of complementary preserves. Excellent wildlife viewing opportunities abound throughout the varied terrain and land types found on these three properties. The Dyer-Hutchinson trail rambles through open scrub and densely forested woods. Popular recreational activities on these trails include mountain biking, trail running, and snowshoeing.
The Dyer-Hutchinson 50-acre conservation easement was donated by Thomas L. Hinkle in order to protect historic property. The house is protected by a historical preservation easement and portions of the property are managed for sustainable forestry and as a commercial cut-your-own Christmas tree farm.
Please cherish and help care for this natural preserve, by limit trail use to daytime hours only, carry out all waste, and staying on marked trails.
