ROYAL GORGE
After a five-month long fundraising campaign, and exacting negotiations, the Land Trust has acquired 3,000 acres on Donner Summit known as Royal Gorge, and 351-acres in Negro Canyon above Donner Lake. With the help of over 1,000 donors, and numerous public and private agencies, the Land Trust and its partners were able to raise the $11.25 million dollars needed to meet the Dec 20 deadline to secure the property. Thanks especially to our partners at The Trust for Public Land the Northern Sierra Partnership.
This might be one of the most important conservation victories for the Sierra in a generation. Now, all of Royal Gorge's remarkable meadows, peaks, natural resources and the Nordic ski area have been protected forever and will be open to the public for world-class recreation.
