Crisp Project
- 440,000
The goal of this project is the protection through Fee Simple Acquisition of 168 acres of riparian area on McLendons Creek. The stretch of McLendons Creek adjacent to the Crisp Property is located within the “Deep River below High Falls Aquatic Habitat”, an ‘exceptional’ Natural Area as designated by The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program. Additionally, McLendons Creek is a tributary of the Deep River which is designated as a High Quality Watershed by the state of North Carolina. The Crisp Property is located approximately 1.5 river miles from the confluence of McLendons Creek and the Deep River. We need $440,000. We have secured a 2 year option from the landowners.

.8 * Join us October 9th at 9:30am as we paddle Tuckertown Reservoir.
Three Rivers Land Trust In September 2019, Phase I of the Alcoa Lands Project was completed. Phase I conserved 2,463 acres and 45 miles of shoreline along High Rock Lake. Now with the closure of Phase II Tuckertown, this project has conserved over 4,800 acres and 76 miles of shoreline along the Yadkin-Pee Dee. Tuckertown Reservoir, an impoundment of the Yadkin River, is known for its recreational opportunities and as a vital water resource for North Carolinians.
To celebrate this momentous achievement, the TRLT Paddle Club is hosting our next group paddle event in Tuckertown Reservoir on October 9th, 2021 at 9:30am. We launch from the Bringles Ferry Boating Access Area (3301 Bringle Ferry Road) and Paddle to the Flat Creek Access (450 Wildlife Access Road). This paddle is 3.8 miles and will take the group about two and a half hours to complete.
We encourage paddlers to organize their own shuttles. Limited shuttles will be available, but must be prearranged. Please contact nicky@threeriverslandtrust.org
