On July 10, 2024, the Zuni Council, consisting of

On July 10, 2024, the Zuni Council, consisting of the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and six council members, voted unanimously to support America’s Red Rock Wilderness Act (ARRWA). The resolution endorses Congressional wilderness designation for lands within the Act, which would protect more than 8.4 million acres of federal public lands in Utah.

We are thrilled to have the Zuni Tribe’s endorsement, which is the third Tribal Nation endorsement of the Red Rock bill.

You've heard us talk a lot about Travel Management

You've heard us talk a lot about Travel Management Plans (TMPs). Next up, we have the travel management plan that started it all—the Henry Mountains/Dirty Devil TMP! The remote and stunning landscapes encompassed within this nearly 1.5 million-acre planning area are the heart of Utah’s redrock country—including places like the Dirty Devil Canyon complex, the Henry Mountains, and the badlands surrounding Factory Butte.

TMPs determine where motorized and off-road vehicles are allowed on public lands. Unfortunately, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)’s current TMP for the area is heavily skewed in favor of motorized use at the expense of natural and cultural resources (such as riparian areas and archaeological sites) as well as people seeking quiet and solitude. A new Henry Mountains/Dirty Devil plan, which we’ll soon see a draft of, is an opportunity for BLM to bring a more balanced approach.

Why so many new travel plans? This plan is one of 11 TMPs the BLM is completing over the next few years as part of a 2017 court-supervised settlement agreement between the agency, conservation organizations (including SUWA), and off-road vehicle groups. Covering more than 6 million acres of BLM-managed lands in eastern and southern Utah, these plans determine where motorized vehicles will be allowed on some of Utah’s wildest public lands. To date, the BLM has completed three of the 11 plans.

Be on the lookout for an advocacy action from us soon. Once the 30-day comment period begins—we'll need your help to submit public comments! You can learn more about TMPs at the link in our bio.

This week marks the 60th anniversary of the Wilder

This week marks the 60th anniversary of the Wilderness Act and the establishment of the National Wilderness Preservation System! Since it was signed into law, this groundbreaking federal legislation has been used by Congress to protect 112 million acres of public lands across 44 states—including Dark Canyon, Canaan Mountain, the San Rafael Reef, Labyrinth Canyon, the High Uintas, and the Cedar Mountains.

Rep. Raúl Grijalva of New Mexico (a longtime cosponsor of America's Red Rock Wilderness Act) has introduced a resolution recognizing the 60th anniversary of the Wilderness Act and the work of those who have advocated for and maintained the National Wilderness Preservation System. It also acknowledges the importance of Traditional Indigenous Knowledge and tribal engagement in the designation and management of these wilderness areas, and celebrates wilderness as a gift to future generations.

Passage of the Wilderness Act created the most comprehensive means of protecting America’s public lands in perpetuity—and that’s worth celebrating! Please ask your representative to cosponsor the House resolution to honor what has been accomplished through the Wilderness Act over the last 60 years and to look forward to new strides in landscape-level protection over the next six decades and beyond! It only takes a couple seconds—link in bio.
