The Mountain Area Preservation Foundation is a grassroots environmental non-profit established by concerned residents of the Truckee Tahoe region. Since our inception in 1987, the Foundation ( or MAPF) has worked to preserve, protect and enhance the region’s natural environment. The Foundation serves as a local advocate for smart-growth principles, and seeks to ensure that new development is environmentally sensitive. As such, we are engaged in our most important challenge yet: the fight to save Martis Valley from inappropriate development.
