Friends of Browns Canyon

Friends of Browns Canyon is a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting, conserving and enhancing the natural and cultural resources of the Browns Canyon area. Friends of Browns Canyon serves its members, the local community and national constituents by providing educational opportunities about the benefits of the diverse natural features and ecosystems of Browns Canyon.

Acting as the voice of the Browns Canyon area, including the National Monument, we inventory and study the ecological needs of the area and represent those needs to local community members, government agencies and conservation organizations. We believe the Browns Canyon area holds treasures and values for ages to come. We believe providing education about these treasures and values to be a key element in the preservation of Browns Canyon.

In the year since the national monument designation, Friends of Browns Canyon led a broad coalition of local and regional stakeholders in working with the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service to create a management plan that ensures adequate protection for the unique landscape and natural resources of Browns Canyon.
