Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument

Save Access to Grand Staircase-Escalante by Telling Congress to Fund the 2020 RMP, Not the 2025 Land Grab

Aug 5, 2025

The 11th-hour approval of a rushed 2025 update to plans for the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument dramatically restricted motorized access and dispersed camping. Congress has proposed to only fund the 2020 version of the plan which still protects natural resources while maintaining multiple-use access. Urge your representatives to support this proposal via the form below.

With 700,000 acres of public land already approved for sale, including another 31 million acres fast-tracked for disposal, the Western Solar Plan, approved in 2024, represents one of the largest privatizations of public land in history.

Tell the BLM to Keep Rollercoaster Trail Technically Challenging for Off-Roaders

Jul 15, 2025

We previously informed you of the North Idaho Trailblazers fight and recent win to keep one of the most popular trails in northern Idaho, the West Fork Pink Creek Trail, open. While that fight is still ongoing, there is an update from the BLM that could affect how the most beloved and technically challenging section of the trail, called the Rollercoaster, is maintained. We’re thrilled to see BLM offering an alternative to keep and maintain this section— but we need your voice to ensure this alternative is chosen. We’ve made it very easy to add your comments with the form below. Comments are due August 13th! Details and form below.

Support BLM Proposal to Allow Class 1 E-Bikes on Moab Biking Trails

Jul 9, 2025

E-bikes are a vital access tool for older riders, people with physical limitations, and families with young children who want to recreate together. These bikes expand access while maintaining the spirit of non-motorized trail use. Class 1 e-bikes are low-powered pedal-assist bikes with no throttle and limited speeds, making them appropriate for shared-use trails without degrading the user experience.
