Our reason for being

Love the
wild.

MountainMap began with a simple idea: the best way to conserve our forests is to experience them.

ABOUT / MOUNTAINMAP

The mission

Experience.
Understand.
Protect.

By experiencing forests, you begin to understand them. When you understand them, you begin to love them.

Our mission is to help you love forests and mountain landscapes even more than you already do.

“In the end we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand; and we will understand only what we are taught.”
01 / A guiding idea Baba Dioum, 1968 ↗

A message that matters

Forests need
our attention.

This film produced by Patagonia carries a message at the heart of our mission: we need forests more than they need us.

Beyond the map

Observe change.
Build solutions.

The forces driving climate change are moving faster in the mountains than in many other geographic areas.

One by-product of this project is the development of natural-resource management tools that use remotely sensed information and mobile data collection to help quantify and qualify that change.

For more information about the role trees play in the health and wellbeing of our planet—and other agroforestry solutions—visit CarbonFarms.org.
