Over
2.3 million acres of ultimate adventure and thrills await you
on the White River National Forest. Whether you're seeking
the tranquility of sun, shade and rushing waters, or wildflower
meadows with breathtaking mountain vistas, or adrenaline-pumping
climbing adventures, the White River National Forest offers
one-of-a-kind exhilarating experiences with possibilities.
The
Forest Conservancy, created in March 2001, is a non-profit
partner with the population that enjoys, uses and protects
the public lands on or near the White River National Forest.
Together,
to improve the quality of life in our community, we promote
a healthy outdoor ethic among all users by:
| |
•
Providing information about safety in hiking, exploring
the unique features on the Forest, and caring for our
natural and cultural resources. |
| |
•
Offering learning experiences that deepen the understanding
of the value of your natural heritage. |
| |
•
Collaborating with the USDA Forest Service, and non-governmental
partners, to build community, opportunity and awareness
of the challenges facing your White River National
Forest. |
The board of directors includes outdoor enthusiasts, environmental
leaders and history buffs all dedicated to public service. Join
us in building a lasting legacy for the future!
