Land Trust of Napa County announced the completion of two conservation easements protecting almost 200 acres near Mount Veeder, along the Napa-Sonoma county line.
âThe property is in a key location,â said Doug Parker, CEO of the Land Trust. âThe easements are very near each other and are adjacent to other protected land. One abuts the Land Trustâs Archer Taylor Preserve, which we just expanded to almost 400 acres.

This one is west of the City of Napa along the Sonoma-Napa county line. The other abuts 160 acres of federal Bureau of Land Management land just south of the preserve. Together, these easements are helping to protect scenic views and an important wildlife corridor along the ridge of the Mayacamas Mountains between Napa and Sonoma, Parker said.
