Pisgah National Forest, NC

      

Nestled in the Pisgah National Forest, 4,400-acre Lake Logan is now protected from further development thanks to a partnership between the Fund, the USDA Forest Service, the State of North Carolina, the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina, and the Boy Scouts of America. This addition to the national forest and the adjacent Shining Rock Wilderness Area, acquired from Champion International and valued in excess of $10 million, safeguards important wildlife habitat and water resources that serve the local communities.
