One man, one easement: 1,363 acres in Stevens County |
 Beryl Baker’s conservation easement is located 26 miles north of Spokane and 6 miles north of Deer Park. The scenic land borders such outlying local favorites as Little Grouse Mountain and the Colville National Forest. Beryl Baker purchased the property in 1966 after seeing an ad in the Wall Street Journal. “I needed a change from banking in Seattle,” he said with a chuckle. He wanted to return to the land and make his own way. A sentiment most likely instilled from a childhood growing up on a wheat farm near Kahlotus, Washington.
