Wilbur Hot Springs’ Nature Preserve is a vast expanse of peaceful valleys, panoramic ridges, open meadows and the rare remnants of century-old mining operations. The original hotel and hot springs, including 240 acres situated along Sulphur Creek, was purchased by Dr. Richard Miller in 1972. In 1999, Dr. Miller purchased the surrounding 1560 acres and designated the area as a nature preserve, placing a conservation easement on the property, thereby limiting development in perpetuity. In 2006, Wilbur began working with range ecologist Craig Thomsen from UC Davis to develop a plan for Ecological Stewardship of the property. This included efforts that exist today towards protecting topsoil, preventing erosion, restoring native ecosystems, removing invasive species, reducing wildfire danger and protecting biological diversity.
