Miller Ranch Open Space is a beautiful and easily accessible open space with access to the Eagle River. In recent years usage has increased, leading to trail braiding and other impacts. As a result, Eagle Valley Land Trust and Eagle County Open Space are working together on this project to help solve these issues. Please join us!

When: Thursday, July 20, 2023, from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm

We are saddened to say goodbye to a longtime supporter of local conservation and the Eagle Valley Land Trust, Pam Timmins. We are forever grateful for her love of the outdoors and this valley's community.

Pam touched the lives of many, including EVLT's Executive Director, Jessica Foulis. "Pam was a dear friend and an inspiring naturalist. I am grateful for her mentorship over the last decade. We will miss her enthusiasm and her wealth of knowledge about the natural world."

Join us in honoring her impact and lasting legacy. To read more about Pam's life, and her obituary, click here.

As open spaces in our community become fewer and farther between, protected land becomes far more valuable, and protecting more land is increasingly critical.

As we chip away at a pipeline of exciting large-scale projects focused on protecting the scenic open spaces, critical wildlife migration corridors, and recreation opportunities that support our mental and physical well-being, we’re grateful to this community for its continued support.

It’s because of you that 2022 was our biggest year yet, and 2023 will be even better.
