SaveBig Brook, a tributary of the Eightmile River, runs through this 19.67 acre property forming a unique geological feature on this site – a gorge with sides 75 feet high in some areas. Sheltered by a mature hardwood forest canopy and groves of Mountain Laurel, the soil at the base of the gorge retains the cold of winter long after the normal spring thaw, and thus can support wildflowers normally only found in the colder regions of New England.
