Future of Royal Gorge up to public
Last December the Truckee Donner Land Trust acquired the 3,000-acre Royal Gorge property on Donner Summit as well as 351 acres in Negro Canyon above Donner Lake.
All of Royal Gorge’s meadows, peaks, natural resources, and Nordic ski area are protected forever and will be open to the public for recreation.
As part of a public outreach and recreational planning process, the Truckee Donner Land Trust has announced a series of public input meetings:
June 15 — Kick-off (Donner Summit)
June 17 — Kick-off (Truckee)
July 6 — Forestry Management
July 29 — Van Norden Meadow
Aug. 31 — Final Wrap-Up
For details regarding each meeting, visit the Truckee Donner Land Trust website.
Sounds like an opportunity to restrict Back Country Skiers.
I guess I will wait and see but I do not like the Truckee Donner Land Trust getting their hands on land that is far from the Tahoe Donner community. And is right in the middle of some world class back Country / rock climbing terrain. Not sure if this even gets into area’s that current are accessed by Snow-machine.
I have some other off comments about this, but will reserve for later.
