Welcome to River2Ridge

Forestland Conservation and sustainable Timber Production

My family and I have bought in the Hot Springs with the intention of retiring to the area. The previous owners chose the timber harvest practice of clearcutting. We will be working with the Department of Forestry and on selection harvesting certainly the most complex timber harvesting practice. In the interim we will be hosting an ultimate private camping experience on the property.

We had SUCH a lovely time. We ended up camping all the up way at Tents Ridge—it’s absolutely incredible.

Incredible flexibility at this spot. Definitely recommend a 4WD off-road vehicle as host stated. Super convenient close to town yet silent and peaceful, the stars are incredible, lots of nature, acres and acres of wild berries, wonderful.

Incredible Adventure! This place was amazing. I had a great experience hiking and camping. Reaching the summit was the most memorable as those views are absolutely beautiful.

It’s definitely a beautiful look out. Amazing for star gazing. Very easy to get to the ridge. There were many flowers in bloom as well. Multiple blueberry bushes on the ridge.
