Description:
Abstract:
The Quabbin to Cardigan Initiative (Q2C) is a collaborative, landscape-scale effort to conserve the Monadnock Highlands of western New Hampshire and north-central Massachusetts. These data show the extent of the Q2C Initiative as approximated by town boundaries.The actual extent of Q2C conservation efforts may extend somewhat beyond this municipal outline. For more information see the Quabbin to Cardigan Conservation Plan Technical Report (2008) prepared by Dan Sundquist of the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests.
Purpose:
This data set will provide geospatial guidance for agencies, governments, organizations, and landowners in prioritizing the voluntary conservation of land and natural resources within the Monadnock Highlands of western New Hampshire and north-central Massachusetts. For more information see the Quabbin to Cardigan Conservation Plan Technical Report (2008) prepared by Dan Sundquist of the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests.
