Our Goals

Our goals are focused in four strategic priority areas:

Programs: Create education and outdoor recreation programs that support the enjoyable and sustainable use of Gold Butte and other public lands.

Advocacy: Cultivate community relations and support land management policies and decisions that preserve a healthy landscape and promote responsible access and use of Gold Butte.

Infrastructure: Facilitate the installation and maintenance of infrastructure necessary to support access to Gold Butte and protect the landscape.

Organizational Sustainability: Ensure the organization is financially sound, has strong partner relationships, a positive community standing, and a growing membership that supports the organization and operations.

We envision a vibrant and healthy Gold Butte landscape where the land and wildlife, cultural resources, and solitude are preserved and accessible for the enjoyment of current and future generations.
