Collaborative Conservation on the Banks of the Yuba River
On the western slope of the Sierra Nevada, at the confluence of Deer Creek and the Yuba River, there’s a very special place. A place which holds:
-
Rich natural habitat
Over 900 habitat-rich acres of riparian habitat, blue oak woodland, wetlands, and great groundwater-fed ponds.
-
Chinook salmon restoration
Over two miles along the banks and watersheds of the Yuba River and Deer Creek, at the epicenter of the Chinook salmon restoration effort.
-
Breathtaking views...
Past the Sutter Buttes and the Central Valley to the west, and across the Sierra to the east.
-
Rich archaeological remains
Archaeological features such as gold-rush era townsites, great hardrock tunnels and towering hydraulicked bluffs which yielded a fortune in gold and still hold much, much more.
-
Easy access
Direct access to both Grass Valley and Marysville on Highway 20.
-
Ownership opportunities
Four equestrian-friendly parcels between 20 and 30 acres each, are now available for purchase. For more information, or to arrange a tour of the property, contact or go to our real estate link. Also, a conservation-minded partner is needed to share in the protection of the historic Black Swan Ranch.
A place this special deserves a special vision. A vision that’s been over three years in the making. A vision we call Excelsior. A vision that looks like this: Excelsior Master Plan
