FOREST/TIMBER RESOURCES The timber resource, consisting of about 30 acres, is well positioned for long-term timber income as well as value appreciation over the coming decades. With an attractive species mix, the timber amenity represents a strong component of value to the investor. The forest resource is composed of quality Appalachian hardwoods. The forest can provide a great deal of flexibility to the next ownership in terms of potential harvest revenue. Capital Timber Value of the timber and pulpwood has not been determined at this time. The forest's predominately well-drained upland terrain has led to a resource dominated by hardwood species. Overall, the species composition is highly desirable and favors hardwood types, consisting primarily of, Sugar Maple, Poplar, Red Oak/Scarlet Oak, White Oak/Chestnut Oak, Soft Maple, Hickory, and a host of associated species (birch, sourwood, black gum, beech). The forest is healthy and there are no signs of pest infestations of Gypsy Moth. The Emerald Ash Borer, which has inundated the entire Northeast US, is present and the Ash component will significantly decline over the next decade. The Eastern Hemlock species is under siege by the Hemlock Wooly Adelgid and the hemlock will continue to decline over the next decade. There have been no forest fires in recent memory.
