We are thrilled to announce that a new section of the Deer Creek Tribute Trail (DCTT) in Nevada City is now open to the public! This section of trail is located on land owned by the California Heritage: Indigenous Research Project (CHIRP), which is the nonprofit entity serving the Nevada City Rancheria Nisenan Tribe. CHIRP acquired this land in 2016 and donated a Trail Easement to BYLT. Through funding obtained by The Sierra Fund from California Natural Resources Agency, BYLT was contracted to design and build the trail and will be responsible for ensuring it stays open and accessible to the public forever.
The beautifully crafted trail sweeps through broad oaks and sentinel pines, connecting the Nisenan Suspension Bridge section of the DCTT to the Canal section, enjoying lovely views of Deer Creek along the way. Posted along the trail are interpretive panels telling its story. The collaborative project is just one more example showcasing that when we come together to reach common goals, we make this community better for everyone. Find out more about the DCTT on our website here.
