Yesterday, SUWA filed a lawsuit and moved for an emergency injunction in federal district court, alleging that Garfield County, Utah violated federal law when it began making unauthorized “improvements” to the Hole-in-the-Rock Road.

The Road runs from the junction of Highway 12, east of the town of Escalante, to the top of the cliffs above the Colorado River within the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Surrounded by wilderness-quality lands, 57 of the road’s 62 miles are within Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and 16 miles of the road are in Garfield County. It is an unpaved, primarily dirt road and core to the remote experience that defines the 1.9-million-acre National Monument.

Garfield County is no stranger to ignoring federal laws. The county is currently conducting and plans to continue conducting unauthorized road improvements on the Hole-in-the-Rock Road including realigning and widening the road and chip sealing (effectively paving) a 10-mile stretch of the road.

SUWA and partners are hosting an emergency webinar

SUWA and partners are hosting an emergency webinar in defense of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, this Monday, February 9th on Zoom at 6:00 pm MT!

Register at link in bio.

Utah's congressional delegation is expected to introduce a “Joint Resolution” in Congress that, if passed, would undo the current Monument Management Plan for Grand Staircase-Escalante.

Making this all possible is a little-known law called the Congressional Review Act (CRA). Join us on Monday to learn about the background of this obscure law and how its unorthodox application could not only impact Grand Staircase-Escalante, but is also being used to upend public land protections across the country.

We'll spend the second half of the call highlighting ways we can all fight back and defend the monument, including by contacting members of Congress and requesting in-district meetings.

Please share this invite with your professional contacts, friends, and family. We encourage attendance regardless of where you live, but especially 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗮, 𝗜𝗱𝗮𝗵𝗼, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗦𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗼, 𝗡𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗮, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗮 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮 (𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗣𝗲𝗻𝗻𝘀𝘆𝗹𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗝𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝘆), 𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲, 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙣 𝙪𝙧𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙟𝙤𝙞𝙣!

Registration is now live for our 2026 Stewardship

Registration is now live for our 2026 Stewardship Project Season! Join us for a new year (and decade) of volunteer projects as we support the protection of public lands in Utah. The first project is only a month away, so sign up now to secure your spot!

To read more about each project, check out the project calendar page (link in bio). Individuals may apply for up to two projects for the 2026 season. Please be aware that some of these projects fill up fast.

This year, we’ll return to many familiar places (as well as several new ones). We are deepening our work in the established sciences while remaining true to our roots in restorative naturalization and human impact mitigation across desert ecosystems. As in years past, we will feature a slew of offerings within Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. If you haven’t yet contacted your members of Congress in defense of the monument, please do so today!

Thank you for your support as we continue tackling this hard but rewarding work together. I hope you will join a project this year and, in doing so, grow our amazing community of wilderness stewards. If you have any questions, please reach out to volunteer@suwa.org.

Today a coalition of six local, Utah-based, and national conservation organizations sued the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for illegally reapproving the four-lane Northern Corridor Highway through the Red Cliffs National Conservation Area near St. George, Utah.

Conservation groups filed the lawsuit after receiving information that the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) would be starting ground-disturbing activities for the highway’s construction based on interim authorizations from BLM and despite BLM having yet to approve a required highway development plan for public lands managed by the agency.

The proposed Northern Corridor Highway would carve a high-speed highway through designated critical habitat for the threatened Mojave desert tortoise within Red Cliffs National Conservation Area. It would damage iconic redrock landscapes, disrupt treasured outdoor recreation opportunities, and set a dangerous precedent for congressionally protected public lands across the U.S.
