Sierra Nevada ‘journeys’ for underserved youth continue with ranch acquisition

Aug 2, 2022 | Project Highlights

Since 2010, kids from California and northern Nevada, including youth from low-income families, have been enjoying the outdoor programs provided by Sierra Nevada Journeys at Grizzly Creek Ranch. Thanks to a $1 million grant from the Sierra Nevada Conservancy, the nonprofit was able to purchase the 462‑acre property, meaning the fun, educational journeys into nature will continue well into the future.

“We are deeply grateful for the Sierra Nevada Conservancy for investing in our mission and the youth we serve,” said Sean Hill, chief executive officer with Sierra Nevada Journeys. “With their generous support, we were able to purchase Grizzly Creek Ranch and create a permanent home for inspiring and serving underserved and underrepresented youth across California and Nevada, including right here in Plumas County.” 

Camp purchase advances outdoor access for all

Nearly 55 percent of the more than 200,000 kids who have attended the Grizzly Creek Ranch have been from families with financial barriers and 70 percent are students of color, making Sierra Nevada Journeys an ideal pathway to advance California’s Outdoor Access for All Initiative . The nonprofit is able to accomplish this by offering scholarships to families in need through the help of private donations.

“For over a decade, Sierra Nevada Journeys has served students with high-quality experiential education and the acquisition of the campus will secure this educational asset for generations to come,” said Kevin Goss, board of supervisors chair with Plumas County. “The County encourages Sierra Nevada Journeys to continue to serve students from low-income families and acquisition of the campus should ensure accessibility to programs for underserved students across the region.”

SNC Grant, donations made land purchase possible

While most of the money was raised through donations, the $1 million grant from the Sierra Nevada Conservancy made the $5.5 million acquisition a reality. The transfer of ownership to Sierra Nevada Journeys also means the property will remain undeveloped, protecting the scenic Sierra Valley land, including a 50-acre riparian area, pond, intermittent stream, alpine meadows, and Big Grizzly Creek, which is a water source for the Middle Fork Feather River (part of the California State Water Project).

Under a long-term management plan formed with the Feather River Land Trust, the property will continue to flourish as a critical habitat for the many species that call it home.

Grizzly Creek Ranch boosts local tourism, economy

On an economic front, keeping Grizzly Creek Ranch in the hands of Sierra Nevada Journeys will allow the nonprofit to preserve the year-round economic boost it brings to Portola and surrounding towns. By employing roughly 65 people, the Ranch is one of Plumas County’s top employers.

“The ranch is a significant economic impact to eastern Plumas County bringing in year-round and seasonal staff, students, families, other groups, and tourism,” added Goss. “It’s also an opportunity to secure an environmentally sensitive watershed area.”

With the recent acquisition, Sierra Nevada Journeys will not only look to preserve the present-day natural benefits of Grizzly Creek Ranch, but continue the educational, outdoor journeys for children of all walks of life well into the future.

Sierra Nevada Journeys purchases Grizzly Creek Ranch

Sierra Nevada Journeys announced the purchase of the 515-acre camp, Grizzly Creek Ranch, east of Portola. For the past 12 years, Sierra Nevada Journeys, an outdoor science education nonprofit, has helped more than 190,000 youth explore nature through science and fuel their own special connections with the natural world. Most of the students that participate in Sierra Nevada Journeys’ programs come from high-need communities across Northern Nevada and Northern California.

“We are deeply grateful to our donors, program partners, volunteers and employees for investing in our mission and the youth we serve,” said Eaton Dunkelberger, CEO Sierra Nevada Journeys. “We raised $5.57 million with the generous support of our dedicated 56 donors.”

“Through all the ups and downs of 2020, we have stayed focused on our mission by helping to meet the extraordinary needs of our community, teachers and students. This year, Sierra Nevada Journeys was able to pivot during the COVID-19 pandemic and still deliver support and respite to those who needed it most. For example, 50 percent of the participants at Family Camp this past fall were scholarship families who were at risk of experiencing more isolation than other families during COVID. We actively worked with community partners like the Boys and Girls Club of Truckee Meadows and Amplify Life to provide families with safe outdoor activities that build support, confidence and new skills to bounce back from life’s challenges,” added Dunkelberger.

Grizzly Creek Ranch has a unique ecosystem creating the ideal setting for using the outdoors as the classroom. Located on Big Grizzly Creek, the watershed, including a ¾-acre pond and its surrounding vegetation, is home to more than 100 bird species.

“We chose to support Sierra Nevada Journeys’ endeavor to purchase the camp as they will preserve Grizzly Creek Ranch for its best and highest use. Using the exceptional land and water resources at Grizzly Creek Ranch as their outdoor classroom, they will be providing youth, especially those from disadvantaged communities, the opportunity to become the next generation of environmental scientists and land stewards,” said Lynn Campbell, North Central Area Representative, Sierra Nevada Conservancy (Ret.).
