Mountain Area Land Trust

Mountain Area Land Trust MALT’s focus is conserving the lands and waters of the foothills and mountains that define our communities and drive our economies. Stand atop Mt.

Saving natural areas, wildlife habitat, streams and rivers, working ranches and historic lands for the benefit of the community and as a legacy for future generations in Colorado. From Denver to the Divide
From the trout-filled waters of the South Platte River to the wide-open spaces of the 1,000-square-mile South Park basin in Park County, for 30 years the Mountain Area Land Trust (MALT) has work

ed collaboratively with private landowners, local, state and federal agencies and the business community to make a lasting difference for the people of Colorado. From the lofty perches of Pikes Peak near Colorado Springs to Longs Peak in Boulder County, and from Denver to the Continental Divide, MALT’s dedicated conservation team is working hard to engage Coloradoans in conserving our natural heritage. MALT produces results that are tangible and lasting. Falcon, a Jefferson County Open Space park, minutes from Denver, and soak in some of the wide open vistas that surround the park and will always remain that way thanks to MALT and forward-looking private landowners. Visit Pennsylvania Mountain, near Fairplay, where MALT purchased land in 2013 and explore the property’s beaver ponds, wildflower meadows and stands of ancient bristlecone pines. Drive along the South Platte River near Deckers and look up at the historic ranch lands MALT has protected. Hike the trails of the Beaver Brook Watershed in Clear Creek County, lands MALT helped protect that are now part of the Arapahoe National Forest. Gaze up Noble Meadow from Evergreen Parkway and watch elk graze on this beautiful property and consider that this landscape, which borders Jefferson County’s Elk Meadow Open Space on the north, will forever be as it is today. These projects, and so many more, are the legacy of the collective vision of MALT’s early volunteer leaders, dedicated private landowners, committed local, state and federal agency partners and the many private donors, businesses and foundations that since 1992 have invested in MALT and in conserving Colorado’s future.

Earlier this month, Mountain Area Land Trust Executive Director Lynn Caliguiri joined a roundtable of community and state leaders, including Senator John Hickenlooper, to discuss economic and workforce development in the region.

As the Senator said, “It’s nice to be reminded of what you’re fighting for.”

Lace up your hiking boots, running shoes, or walking sneakers, and get moving for Mountain Area Land Trust.

This September, we invite you to hike, move, and make every mile count with Miles for MALT, a month-long hiking, movement, and fundraising challenge that supports land conservation in Colorado.

Miles for MALT is a celebration of Colorado's trails, open spaces, wildlife habitat, and the people who care enough to protect them. Whether you're hiking your favorite trail, walking through your neighborhood, or exploring a park in another state, every mile helps protect the land, water, wildlife and Colorado’s way of life.

As part of the Miles for MALT, we will host four free guided community hikes throughout September. These hikes give participants a chance to explore local trails, meet neighbors, and learn about the landscapes MALT works to protect. P.S. you can join whether you're a Miles for MALT participant or not!
