When the LRCT, or any other organization, has a conservation easement on a piece of property it doesn't mean they own it or control it or that the property is open to the public. The LRCT will have a monitor visit the property once a year to make sure that the land is not being developed and that the conditions of the easement are being honored. If necessary the LRCT can take legal action to prevent development.

It's just a legal way to tie property in knots so it can never be developed.
