The Silver Saddle Ranch (SSR) contains some of the last remaining open space and undeveloped Carson River frontage in Eagle Valley. In combination, the unique natural features that identify this ranch and a large, contiguous block of public ownership between the Pine Nut Mountains and the Prison Hill recreation area are the main reasons the SSR was acquired by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Through land exchange with Perma-Bilt Homes and the American Land Conservancy, the privately-owned SSR was transferred to public ownership. The BLM will implement protection of the Carson River's riparian habitat and continue to provide public recreational access. This action will be accomplished with the support of many public and private partners who are also committed to the open space and recreational opportunities that the SSR can provide to the Carson City community
