The Antelope Valley Regional Planning Advisory Committee and Mono County are seeking community and visitor input to plan improvements for sustainable public access along the West Walker River waterfront and Mountain Gate Park.

The project aims to enhance the recreational opportunities and ecological features of Mountain Gate Park through the development of sustainable trail system(s) and watershed improvements that promote fish nurseries, bird habitat, and public access. Returning the West Walker River’s vitality will benefit the communities of Walker and Coleville, the local economy, and the traveling public.

Learning to make more time for recreation, means learning to be respectful of the natural environment and other trail users. Sure, it's easy to think you're out there alone or everyone on the trail has the same skill level. But, like it or not, there's a lot of us out there and a lot of us who want to enjoy our own unique experience.
|
|
With a greater number of users, there's a greater need to educate yourself and others on trail regulations and etiquette, and how your actions may affect other users. Have you ever stopped to wonder what it is like for the mountain biker enjoying the hard-earned descent after pedaling up the trail, sweat dripping and lungs burning?

Have you ever stopped to wonder how an equestrian rider tries to anticipate what may spook their horse? Have you ever stopped to wonder if the dad hiking with his baby has the time or space to get out of the way quickly?

Just like the Mammoth Lakes 395 Wildlife Crossing Project, the wildlife crossing at Liberty Canyon is an effort to allow wildlife a safe crossing. This is a large-scale public/private partnership, with a core project team of the Liberty Wildlife Corridor Partners: Caltrans, the National Park Service, the Santa Monica Mountains Conservatory/ Mountain Recreation and Conservation Authority, the Resource Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains, and the National Wildlife Federation—along with local and state elected officials.
|
If funded, this crossing could be the biggest in the world! “We have secured $38 million for construction to date,” said Beth Pratt, regional executive director in California for the group. “This leaves about $27 million outstanding and is the amount we need to raise to break ground on time this fall.”
