In August 2024 we partnered with the @payette_land In August 2024 we partnered with the @payette_land_trust to purchase Annie Creek, a 94-acre inholding within Idaho’s Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, safeguarding it from development. Just days before the federal government shut down, we completed the transfer of the property to public ownership to be added to the designated wilderness area.
Earlier this summer the Trust transferred our 30-a Earlier this summer the Trust transferred our 30-acre Needle Creek property, adding it to the Weminuche Wilderness. Last week we built off that momentum, transferring our 31-acre Great Western Lode properties to also be added to the Weminuche, once again growing Colorado’s largest wilderness area and protecting fragile alpine tundra habitat. The addition of Great Western Lode to the wilderness area secures public access on the popular 9.3-mile Whitehead Trail, which runs through two of the project’s three properties, and connects the Continental Divide Trail to the Highland Mary Trail and Deer Park Trails, which are easily accessible from the recreation destination of Silverton, Colorado. All but 6 acres of Great Western Lode will be added to designated wilderness, enjoying the highest level of protection available to public lands that can only be altered by an act of Congress, not executive orders or other administration directives. The remaining 6 acres, which extends outside of the established wilderness boundary, will be added to San Juan National Forest to be managed as wilderness.
