Mountains of Thanks
for your help!

Disaster Peak Ranch lies adjacent to ODLT’s Trout Creek Ranch. Combining the two efforts expands the total project size to nearly 600,000 acres and continues to grow one of the largest conservation projects in all of Oregon. We’re grateful for everyone who donated their time, money, outreach and encouragement in 2025 to turn this vision into a reality! We’re eager to dive into restoration and management planning for these special areas and will keep you updated!

Because of your support, we’ve conserved more than 20,000 acres of the high desert that are critical to wildlife and people. 

We have big plans for 2026 and hope you can help us achieve them!
