Blue Mountains Conservancy is busier than ever bringing more natural history programing and volunteer conservation opportunities to the NE Oregon community than ever before.

Our Heart of the Blues Lecture and Outing series brings fun, informative learning opportunities to Union and Baker counties. From salmon restoration and bumblebee conservation to native wildflower and the ecology of beavers, our talks and walks are becoming a very popular way to connect more deeply to the natural and human history of our beautiful region. 

We are also actively involved in native plant restoration and wetland/riparian protection on the Mount Emily Recreation area as well as on Conservancy owned land. Improving wildlife habitat and enhancing the human experience are priorities for the Conservancy. 

As always, Blue Mountains Conservancy is also deeply engaged in and committed to providing landowners with the opportunity to place permanent, voluntary protections on private lands through conservation easements. Conservation easements help protect the rural character and natural legacy of our special corner of NE Oregon by preserving the landscape, the open spaces and the rural way of life.

By supporting our work you will be helping to keep the Heart of the Blues programs alive and ensuring that we can continue to reach out to landowners to let them know about the important conservation opportunities available to them. 

Many, many thanks to Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort for the generous donation of this fabulous prize. Two nights in a magical setting beneath the peaks of the Elkhorn Mountains of NE Oregon. What could be better!

What You Could Win

  • 2 Nights Lodging at Gunsight Yurt at Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort!

    An experience you will never forget! Two nights in a magical setting high in the Elkhorn Mountains of NE Oregon. Relax in a warm, cozy yurt after a day of skiing or playing in the snow!


    Gunsight Yurt is located within 1/4 mile of the main lodge at Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort and just off the nordic ski trails. It is 16 feet in diameter and sleeps 5! Gunsight Yurt boasts breathtaking views and an unforgettable experience.


    The yurt is fully outfitted with a woodstove for heat (including cut and split firewood), propane stove for cooking, small kitchen with cookware and kitchen basics, lanterns for light, bunks with comfy sleeping pads, large table, cooler, games, and access to an outhouse restroom.


    You will only need to pack in food, beverages, sleeping bag/pillow, and appropriate ski or snowboard gear. The Main Lodge, Nordic Lodge, and Starbottle Saloon are only a kick, glide, and pole plant away.  Relax with family and friends in a quiet, cozy yurt after a long day on the slopes or the nordic trails.


    You can pack your gear in yourself or a snowmobile shuttle/porter service is available to transport all of your gear to the yurts for an additional $15.  Sorry no dogs allowed.


    Prize must be used by the end of March 2016.
