SUMMARY:West Desert Spring Stewardship Project

Spanning several counties and hundreds of miles of remote roads\, many of the regions spectacular features are protected as wilderness study areas (WSAs) and managed by the local BLM. Limited resources and expansive territory combine for a particular need to recruit volunteers to ensure proper monitoring and maintenance of the West Desert’s diverse and unique landscapes. \n\nThe Work \n \nWork schedule and locations are in development and will be announced in early spring. \nWork tasks will vary by need\, and are slated to include: \n\ncampsite and route compliance and remediation;\nmanual reclamation of visually disturbed surface\n\nOur Objective: To remediate existing impacts resulting from non-permitted travel and camping. \n\nItinerary\nA comprehensive itinerary will be provided to registered volunteers. \n\nTuesday\, May 31st: Optional early arrival\nWednesday\, Jun 1st: Day 1 + Orientation\nThursday\, June 2nd: Day 2\nFriday\, June 3rd: Day 3 + Departure\n\n\nProject Rating  \nLevel 2 – Our most common trip incorporates mid- to heavy-lifting\, work in remote landscapes at varying elevations\, an increased diversity of tool use\, and an emphasis on physical fitness and hiking competency. \n\nCamping & Meals \nSpecific location of camping site(s) will be provided in the Welcome Letter sent to registered volunteers. \nSUWA provides dinners (Wednesday and Thursday) and snacks during the project.

SUMMARY:Water Canyon Stewardship Project
DESCRIPTION:The Land\nAdjacent to the southeast boundary of Zion National Park\, Canaan Mountain Wilderness is comprised of approximately 44\,500 acres of public land in Washington County. In this wilderness\, an 8-by-10 mile block of Navajo Sandstone\, bounded by 2\,000-foot-high cliffs\, has been sculpted by wind and water over time into a landscape of soaring cliff walls\, natural arches\, and slot canyons. On the highest plateaus\, stands of ponderosa pine are surrounded by cream-colored slickrock. Pinyon pine\, Utah juniper\, scrub oak\, and sagebrush cover the mountain slopes\, at lower elevations. Seeps in the canyon walls provide water for hanging gardens of maidenhair fern\, monkeyflower\, and columbine. Hawks\, falcons\, and golden eagles nest along the sandstone walls\, while ring-tailed cats\, deer\, cougar\, and black bear live on the plateaus and in the canyon bottoms.\n\n\n\nThe Work \n\nOur work will focus on remediating graffiti impacts in the wilderness. Volunteers will use scrubs and brushes and jet spray backpacks to remove traces of recent graffiti on sandstone and other surfaces. Additional hand tools may be used to further remediate social trail and other ground impacts as determined.\n\n\n\nOur Objective: Remediate the impacts of rock graffiti in a protected wilderness area. \n\n\n\n\nProject Itinerary: A comprehensive itinerary will be provided to registered volunteers. \n\n\nMonday\, June 27th – 8:00AM until 4:00pm\n\n\n\n\nProject Rating  \nLevel 2 – Our most common trip incorporates mid- to heavy-lifting\, work in remote landscapes at varying elevations\, an increased diversity of tool use\, and an emphasis on physical fitness. The nature of Level 2 projects vary. Read specific project descriptions thoroughly for comprehensive expectations. \n\nCamping & Meals \nVolunteers will camp (at their choosing) on site at a location TBD. This may also be attended as a day-only project. \nA meal (likely lunch) will be provided. \n\nVolunteer Responsibilities \nParticipants are responsible for their own food\, water and camping gear as well as transportation to and from the project site(s). Volunteers should plan to be away from camp all day each of the work days. A recommended pack list will be sent along with the project Welcome Letter two weeks prior to the start date. \n\nRegistration \nA Volunteer Agreement is required for this project. \n \nWhen we have received your form\, you will receive a confirmation e-mail within 5 working days of submission.
