  • Usage Survey: For more than a year, MMPC has been conducting a Usage Survey to determine how members of our community recreate on More Mesa.  We would like to thank our many supporters who responded to a recent e-mail request by completing this survey on line.  Because of this excellent response, we now have almost 300 replies and are nearing completion of the study.  If you have not already participated in this survey, you may do so [here].

  • White-tailed Kites: We are happy to report that we have at least six resident kites on More Mesa at this time.  This is an impressive and heartening number, as many of the traditional sites for these magnificent birds have not been occupied this year.
