Alert:

A timber harvest at Mohawk State Forest in Cornwall, CT

The DEEP has started a timber harvest to provide benefits of a healthier and more diverse forest and wildlife habitat, and a safer experience for the public.  A public outreach walk at Mohawk took place in November 2023 regarding this spongy moth salvage harvest walk. (previously called the Gypsy Moth).

The Mattatuck Trail is currently closed between Flat Rocks Road and College Street until this section of the harvest is done. 

In February, work will continue off the paved Tourney Road through the main entrance to Mohawk off Route 4.  It may involve a day or two of complete closure of this road system while roadside dead trees are dropped.  It is DEEP Forestry’s hope that this entire operation can be completed during this winter season, but that is weather pending.
