With a rich history going back to the days when ranching was more popular in the reagion, the Pequena Colina is an old ranch southwest of Prospect. With years of drought off and on in the region, the prior owners couldn't keep up with the business or bigger ranches. The Ranch has fallen into the hands of the Torreyana Trust, a group dedicated to the preservation of the Torrey Pine. Not the pines limited natural habitat north of Prospect, it can grow hearty out here, continuing to preserve seeds. This allows researchers of the Trust to focus agriculture studies here on hearty specimens now growing on the property to hopefully assist with a rebound of the Torrey Pine.
