Introduction

     Cool springs wildlife conservation park is 192 acres. Situated on the Jerome Fork of the Mohican River ,the park has hilly terrain, with grassland, forest and a large marsh. Approximately 50 acres will be farmed. There are a number of  springs on the property and also a 5 foot waterfall. These  springs feed three ponds that contain trout. There are two main woodlot areas. One of them is adjacent to a plot that was once owned by Jhonny Apple seed. There is marshland next to the river north of Mohicanville Dam. There is a warm season grassland and there will be more planted in the future. Much of the park will be open to public hunting with exception to the picnic area located near the spring fed springs.   A parking area is being planned.
