elk valley land trust

Welcome

The defining characteristic of the Elk Valley is that it sits at the interface of the natural and human environments.  We at the Land Trust, and our many partners, recognize that the critical challenge facing the Valley is the need to meet the demands of both wildlife and human life, and to do so on an ongoing basis.

We believe that we can work with landowners to achieve these goals, and that we can do so in ways that meet their financial objectives. We believe we can, at the same time, conserve the natural environment, provide a critical North  / South corridor for wildlife connectivity, and protect the interests of sustainable users.

Our method is simple – we acquire lands, or covenants in lands, and steward  those lands to the benefit of all.  We do this by continually applying the best available scientific evidence, as well as a commitment to meaningful engagement with the community.

Thanks so much for spending some time with us.  We invite you to take a few minutes from your day, click on the menu items that interest you, and learn a bit more!
