Almost 12,000 acres of forest and more than 21 miles of shoreline in Washington County on and around East Grand Lake is now preserved after more than 10 years of work by The Conservation Fund. The East Grand Watershed Initiative guarantees access for hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, guiding and other outdoor activities along Maine's eastern border with Canada. The land, which is privately owned, includes 16 miles of shorefront on East Grand Lake. The first phase of the plan, completed in 2016, focused on the protection of 5,992 acres of deer wintering habitat at Monument Brook and 1,493 acres of working forestland in Orient.
