McLean Bogs is a National Natural Landmark containing two small kettle bogs located in Dryden, New York.^[1]^[2] It was donated to Cornell University by Curtis G. Lloyd in the 1930s,^[3] and an 81-acre (33 ha) site containing the bogs and surrounding woodlands was declared a National Natural Landmark in May 1983.^[4]

The site contains two bogs; one acidic and one alkaline.^[4] One bog is approximately 70 metres (230 ft) wide with a peat depth of eight metres (26 ft) and contains several species of sphagnum moss.^[5] There are over 66 species of lichens in the bog, primarily corticolous and lignicolous types.

Cornell Botanic Gardens manages the site and restricts public access.^[6] One of the key research areas in the bog is to better understand how different types of microbial species creates methane gas in peat bogs.^[7]
