Mulroy Ranch - Eagle Valley Land Trust

Mulroy Ranch is now conserved, forever, thanks to landowners Tom and Colleen Mulroy. The 1,900-acre conservation easement, which is part of the 2,300-acre private property, straddles Eagle and Grand Counties. It includes native sagebrush shrublands, pinyon-juniper woodlands, montane and subalpine forests and riparian corridors nestled between the Gore Range to the south and Gore Canyon to the north. Conserving this property helps to protect the scenic view along the Colorado River Headwaters Scenic Byway. Since purchasing the land, Mr. Mulroy has enhanced the rangeland and wildlife habitat. The property now supports native grasses and important habitat linkages for our region’s threatened wildlife, especially elk and deer.

This collaboration between landowner and land trust will protect and preserve the property’s conservation values, which include wildlife habitat, scenic vistas enjoyed by the public, and productive agricultural lands.
