Kesick Swamp Wildlife Management Area (WMA) is an 80-acre parcel of land owned by the State of Vermont and managed by the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department. The WMA is located in the town of Sunderland just off Route 7 between Exits 3 and 4. Access to the WMA is through a 25-foot long right-of-way at the end of Beaver Meadow Road, which is located off Sunderland Hill Road. A small parking lot will be installed there in the near future.
Kesick Swamp WMA is an historic beaver pond meadow. The beaver dam gets washed out and is rebuilt periodically - a natural cycle. This cycle was demonstrated in 2002 when the dam was destroyed by a storm. The pond drained and became a meadow; and the beavers rebuilt the dam, which formed a pond again. Other wildlife benefits from either condition. Cole Brook and Beaver Meadow Brook are the water sources for the WMA. The wetland is a mix of cattails and scrub shrub emergent marsh with a fringe of alder, red maple and white pine. The wetland habitat edged by forest provides great habitat for a number of species. It is an excellent watchable-wildlife site, especially from a canoe or kayak.
