Who owns Mt. Monadnock?
The mountain is owned jointly by the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, the State of New Hampshire and the Town of Jaffrey. The patchwork ownership is the result of a long history of separate preservation efforts. The three owners generally work together congenially in the best interests of preserving the mountain and ensuring a pleasurable experience for everyone. The two other owners lease their property to the state for use as a park.
