Sacramento Creek Ranch

Sacramento Creek Ranch is a 71-acre property owned by Mountain Area Land Trust (MALT) and is located about three miles northwest of Fair­play in Park County. The property is visible from Highway 9 and is bordered by national forest land. The Colorado National Heritage Program has identified the property as having “Very High Biodiversity Significance.” As the name suggests, Sacramento Creek runs through the property and provides excellent riparian and beaver habitat. In addition, elk, moose, and black bear call the area home. Going forward, MALT plans to use the property as a research center and for public recreation and education.
