Middlebury Gap is the gateway to the Battell Park and the Green Mountain National Forest. These together are a superb stand largely of first growth timber which extends from Mount Roosevelt on the north to White Rocks Mountain on the south and contains some 31,000 acres. This forest with Breadloaf Inn and a number of smaller detached tracts was bequeathed to Middlebury College by the late Col. Joseph Battell. One of the smaller tracts, detached from the main forest, and comprising over 4,000 acres, extends along the ridge of Lincoln Mountain, north from Lincoln-Warren Pass to the northern slope of Mount Ellen. The most of the Battell Forest, other than the Battell Park, has been sold to the United States Forest Service and is now included in the Green Mountain National Forest.
