Another Preserve in Tennessee
Posted: Jun 7, 2012 1:23 pm
On June 13th another preserve is to be dedicated. It will be called the Headwaters Wildlife Management Area. According to the letter I received
from the Tennessee Parks and Greenways Foundation, this preserve will be almost 1000 acres on Short Mountain in Cannon County. Hunting,
hiking and watching wildlife are mentioned activities available. And as usual, nothing is mentioned about caving, even though there are caves
on Short Mountain. I do not know which part of the mountain will be part of the preserve, so I don't know if it includes any of the caves or not.
I'm glad land is being preserved, but I find it annoying that caving is not allowed on land that in most cases is at least partially paid for by tax
payers.
