conserving a landscape of hope and opportunity

The Transboundary Rocky Mountains of North America span an unparalleled geography of wide-open spaces. Home to iconic mountain ranges, free-flowing rivers, lush valleys, timberlands, and sage-covered hillsides, this landscape has supported wildlife and agricultural economies for generations.

But today, we are experiencing extraordinary economic and demographic pressure. If this vital landscape is to continue to sustain and connect working families, communities, and wildlife, we must come together to conserve the private lands that are the heart of this crucial place. The need is great. The time is now. Heart of the Rockies Initiative partners with land trusts, landowners, Tribes and communities to support and scale conservation in the region and ensure connected habitat and working lands for people and wildlife.
