The Nature Conservancy's Davis Mountains Preserve in Fort Davis, Texas, is a rugged yet fragile sky-island refuge surrounded by the vast West Texas desert landscape. With a 30-year effort to protect tracts of land, the preserve aims to forever safeguard the unique high-elevation ecosystem of the Davis Mountains region.
