SUMMARY:Bears Ears Wilderness
DESCRIPTION:The Land \nWith the designation of Bears Ears National Monument on December 28th\, 2016\, a new layer of protection was granted to some of the most spectacular places in southern Utah. There is Cedar Mesa\, with its incredible canyons running toward the San Juan River. There is White Canyon to the west of Natural Bridges. There are the Bears Ears themselves and the high ponderosa forests of Elk Ridge. To the north there’s Beef Basin and Indian Creek. Nearly 100\,000 archaeological and cultural sites were covered by the proclamation\, with protections afforded to a historied landscape long-neglected and actively undermined by private interests. \n\nThe Work \nWe are returning to Elk Ridge for our seventh consecutive year working with the Manti-La Sal Forest Service on a series of natural resource protection projects. \nThis year’s project will be a strenuous backpacking trip with an emphasis on fencing construction and repair\, as well as trail management in the Dark Canyon Wilderness Area. Work tasks will vary by need and may include sign installation and surface remediation. \nAnticipate heat. Anticipate remote travel. Anticipate heavy labor. Expect a unique experience on a storied and magnificent landscape. \nVolunteers Needed: (8)\nProject Lead: Jack Hanley\n \n  \n  \n\nItinerary\nA comprehensive itinerary will be provided to registered volunteers. \n\nThursday\, July 13th through Sunday\, July 16th\n\n\nProject Rating  \nLevel 3 – Heavy lifting\, high-elevation\, remote travel\, and extended durations away from common conveniences. Leave No Trace principles are essential during all of our trips but require the most thought and planning at Level 3. These trips may involve on-site training for technical skills and tool use. Excellent physical fitness is a must at this level. \n\nCamping & Meals \nSpecific location of camping site(s) will be provided in the Welcome Letter sent to registered volunteers. \nSUWA provides select meals and snacks during the project. Volunteers are responsible for all additional meals not specified in the Welcome Letter during their stay. \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 at least (2) 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. The confirmation e-mail will indicate whether you have been placed on the “project roster” or a “waiting list.” Individuals on the Waitlist will be contacted if spaces open due to cancellation within (2) weeks of the project start date. \nAt least (2) weeks before the project start date\, registered and confirmed participants will receive a Welcome Letter\, with a comprehensive itinerary\, including: driving instructions\, a Project Map for mobile devices (when applicable(\, a notification about carpools and/or caravans\, and additional information in a Pre-Departure email.
