What if Spruce Mountain had become a resort?

Forty years ago, that was the plan. Instead, thanks to the vision of our conservation-minded community, this area is conserved today. Families now hike scenic trails, wildlife thrives, and one of Douglas County’s most beautiful landscapes remains open for everyone to enjoy.

During National Make-A-Will Month, we’re reminded that the choices we make today shape the world future generations will inherit.

If protecting the land you love is part of your legacy, we’d be honored to be part of your plans.
