Who We Are

Sierra Forever, a 501c3 nonprofit organization that partners with local, tribal, and federal governments and fellow nonprofits to provide interpretive education, informational, and other public services that will add to visitors understanding and enjoyment of the Spring Mountains National Recreation Area. These programs include GO Mt Charleston programs, interpretive programming, volunteer management, retail operations, social media outreach, and this website.

Sierra Forever is honored to work on and steward public lands across Nevada, which are the ancestral homelands of several Indigenous Peoples, including the Southern Paiute, Chemehuevi, and Western Shoshone peoples. We honor and respect the enduring connections that Indigenous communities have to this land and strive to support and collaborate with local tribes as an integral part of our mission.
