One Touch Of Nature Makes The Whole World Kin

McKenzie conservation area property consists of 421 acres

Located along the northwestern shore of Newman Lake in eastern Spokane County. The area is administered by the Spokane County Parks and Recreation Department and became a Spokane County Conservation Futures property in 2005. The site contains rocky outcrops and high ridges allow for scenic views of Mount Spokane and the surrounding area.

This conservation area contains upland, mixed conifer forests full of Western red cedar, Western larch, Western white pine, Douglas fir, Western hemlock, Grand fir, Lodgepole pine, and Ponderosa pine as well as wetlands ringed by cottonwood and aspen groves. There are also two streams and springs that feed the wetlands from the north and west. Which gives life to the diverse populations of wildflowers, orchids, daisies, and other plants.

The property protects the habitat of bald eagles, as some nests have been found both in and around the area. In addition, many other species of birds can be seen. Wildlife, such as moose, elk, White-tailed deer, coyote and black bear, have also been spotted on the land. The wetlands are home to painted turtles and frogs as well.
