Another property on the Bull River now
permanently protected!
57
acres in the incredibly scenic Bull River Valley within the Cabinet
Mountains of Sanders County, Montana, are now permanently protected
from development. CFPOC has just closed a conservation easement on
this stunning property which has significant wildlife habitat and
ecological value for several threatened and endangered species and
which serves as a potential wildlife travel corridor between the
east and west side of the Cabinet Mountains.
Belonging to Ann Warrington of Spokane,
Washington, this spectacularly beautiful property is dominated by
mountain foothills with conifer forest and extensive, rich wetland
and riparian areas along the river, providing exceptional habitat
for moose, waterfowl and birds, as well as the threatened bull
trout.

CFPOC would like to
thank all the generous corporate sponsors for the 2011 Wild and
Scenic Film Festival

Special Areas
Scenic Lake Pend Oreille, the beautiful lower Clark Fork River
Valley, and the adjacent lands and watersheds, are magnificent
and unique areas. These special areas are rich in wildlife
resources, including moose, elk, and deer. There are
abundant waterfowl, osprey, eagles, and songbirds. The
waterways teem with fish. There are vast verdant forests
with a unique diversity of tree species. Great scenery,
wildlife and access to recreation lands attract local residents,
tourists, sportsmen, nature lovers and retirees to this area.

Our CFPOC Mission and Challenges
The Clark Fork-Pend Oreille Conservancy (CFPOC) is a land
trust that works with the landowners and organizations in
the Clark Fork River and Lake Pend Oreille watersheds to
protect, maintain, and enhance natural resources and
recreational values that contribute to our quality of life.

What is Land Trust?
A land trust is a nonprofit charitable organization that
works with landowners to protect land and water resources.
A land trust is a tax-exempt charity that is composed of
local citizens concerned about natural resources and
conservation. Land trusts and private landowners work
together as partners to protect land with conservation
easements and other voluntary conservation methods. |
 |
Our Board of Directors,
Staff and Advisors
The CFPOC is governed by a Board of Directors composed of
local citizens from Montana and Idaho, local landowners,
experts such as biologists, and representatives from other
conservation and state organizations. A professional
executive director works for the Board. The CFPOC
follows the rules required by the IRS and the management
standards recommended by the national Land Trust Alliance. |
