Photographs | Sam's Point Preserve

Sam's Point Preserve now includes 1,045 acres. It is a globally unique area characterized by pitch pine barrens, dwarf pine plains, and ice caves. The remaining 3,800 acres were added to the Minnewaska State Park Preserve in September 2006. This area was formerly the 4,600-acre Ellenville Watershed area that was purchased by Open Space Institute in November of 1997. It will be partially administered by The Nature Conservancy until 2017.
