Protecting a California Ranch Rich in Biodiversity and History

The stunning 30,000-acre Lone Pine Ranch in California is a landscape of national park quality. Forming part of the “Grand Canyon of the Eel River,” the ranch features 18 miles of river frontage, rugged mountains, a resident elk herd, one of the best steelhead fisheries in the West, and extensive conifer and oak forests. This property, once owned by American businessman Dean Witter, will help secure the future Great Redwood Trail—a 300-mile rails-to-trails project stretching all the way to the Bay Area. Conserving large, connected landscapes with diverse habitats such as this will also help reach California’s critical need to protect resilient ecosystems as we face the challenges of climate change.

These reasons are why a group of conservation-minded organizations, private landowners, and federal agencies have been working together to protect thousands of acres of forestland in the Sebago Lake watershed outside Portland, Maine.
