Differences between the Jackson Hole Land Trust and the Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance The major difference between the Jackson Hole Land Trust and the Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance lies in the way each organization protects Jackson Hole’s natural environment. The Jackson Hole Land Trust, a non-political organization, primarily uses conservation easements to permanently protect critical wildlife habitats and open land in Jackson Hole. In contrast, the Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance monitors the valley and educates the public about responsible ways to protect the natural and scenic resources of Jackson Hole.
