As we prepare to celebrate our 40th anniversary in 2014, we are proud of our accomplishments wrapped into this Annual Report issue of the View. We’ve protected two more stunning, incredible tracts — one near and visible from the Blue Ridge Parkway and one in the Yellow Mountain State Natural Area in Avery County. We also want to send out a huge thank you to all our supporters and incredible volunteers who make our work possible.
