Keuka Lake Bluff Point $100,000 Challenge Match Achieved and Surpassed!

To everyone who gave, thank you for your support. Your gifts are helping the Finger Lakes Land Trust to protect one of the most prominent natural landmarks in the Finger Lakes region!

Visible for miles, Bluff Point occupies the center of the “Y” for which Keuka Lake is well known. Once almost entirely farmed, the slopes of Bluff Point are now blanketed by maturing hardwood forests.

These forests play a vital role in helping to prevent erosion and minimize nutrient runoff into Keuka Lake. Bluff Point’s woodlands also host a diversity of wildlife, including neotropical songbirds–some of which nest in the area, and others that continue on to Canadian forests. The Bluff’s forests also help define the character of this area and contribute to the scenic landscapes that attract numerous visitors to Keuka Lake and its watershed.
