What Is The Canyon-Network?

The Canyon-Network is an online community of residents and friends of Butte Creek Canyon, with an emphasis on preserving the natural beauty, history, and community of the Canyon.

This is a grass-roots effort at creating a way for the Butte Creek Canyon community to come together. The Canyon is a wonderful place, but the rural environment can make for a distant relationship between even the nearest neighbors. Our hope is that this virtual community will help strengthen the physical one.
