On January 19, 2019, Conserving Carolina and Walnut Creek Preserve held a free lecture entitled, "Landslides in WNC – where and why, and what can we do," presented by Jennifer Bauer, L.G., Appalachian Landslide Consultants, PLLC at the Anne Elizabeth Suratt Nature Center at Walnut Creek Preserve.

This presentation covered general information about landslides in western North Carolina, the types of landslides most prevalent, where they occur, and what triggers them. It illustrated what we know about landslides through examples, stories, and photographs. You’ll come away with a better understanding of how landslides affect WNC and how we can protect ourselves from these natural and human-induced hazards.

Walnut Creek Preserve is an equestrian and nature preserve community outside of Lake Lure, North Carolina, offering for sale large tract acreage (10-35 acres) horse farms. WCP is an exceptionally large tract of over 2,100 acres of land whose development has been designed with horseback riding, hiking and nature study in mind. The Preserve's 2,100 acres of forest and pasture land shelter a tremendous variety of indigenous plant life, including several rare and one threatened species, as well as a wealth of wild animal life. To assure their survival, only 25 wooded and equestrian home sites averaging 20 acres each will be offered for sale on the 2,100 acres, and the remaining, over 1,500 acres of wilderness are protected in perpetuity by deeded conservation easement held by Conserving Carolina (formerly Pacolet Area Conservancy). Access by invitation only.
