Mt. Major Summit

We're Surveying Mt. Major Visitors This Summer!

We're launching a new Visitor Use Management Study to better understand the experiences, needs, and preferences of those who love this iconic mountain. The Forest Society has made a number of recreational infrastructure improvements in recent years, and we are looking for input from visitors to guide future management.
