Where We Work
Scenic vistas and wild open spaces close to where we live; natural landscapes protected forever in our communities; easily accessible hiking, biking, wildlife viewing, and protected habitats full of rare plants and animals.
The wildlands of the Irvine Ranch Natural Landmarks are often called “a National Park experience in Our Backyard.” Vast rare habitats and miles of world-class trails are within a 30-minute drive for more than 3,000,000 people in Orange County and beyond. These local wildlands grant easy access to fresh air, beautiful views, and outdoor recreation immersed in nature .
Their closeness also makes them vulnerable to the impacts of human development and activity. Threats to the health of the Landmarks include wildfire, invasive species, habitat degradation, loss of critical species, and excessive human access. These challenges are all wrapped in the uncertainty of climate change.
