Rochester Wildlife Management Area (WMA) is a 251- acre parcel owned by the State of Vermont and managed by the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department. The WMA is located in the town of Rochester and borders on the Rochester-Braintree town line. It is about 0.4 mile west of Little Hollow Road. Access is by foot only. The timber rights on this WMA are privately owned. Rochester WMA is completely forested with red and sugar maple, beech and yellow birch. There is a 20-acre stand of mixed white birch and red spruce. The elevation of the WMA ranges from about 2,600 feet in the northwest corner to approximately 1,800 feet on the east side. The slope on the east is only about 5% but increases to about 60% in the extreme northwest portion of the lot. At least one major drainage runs southwest to northeast through the parcel, with other smaller drainages associated with it.
