A large scattering of small pieces of timberland in the Gorge is under the ownership of a new group called the Conservation Fund. The new ownership plans to conserve and restore the beautiful lands accessible by hiking trails.
The Conservation Fund purchased 35,000 acres of sloped oak forests, rivers and streams, Ponderosa pine, and other microclimate lands from the SDS Lumber Company and SDS Co.
