There are only 10 legislative days left in 2019. Tell Congress they must finish the job and pass full and permanent funding for #LWCF before the end of the year! #FundLWCF
This #ThankYouThursday we would like to showcase Alpine Rigging, Production Rigging & Structural Design! We thank you for being loyal #SRR supporters as well as a business sponsor!
"Alpine Rigging provides rigging solutions to live events of all types, the world over. Having spent many years roaming and climbing in the Red Rocks "it" has been a large part of the crucible that shaped our lives. There is no figuring it out later, and then saving wilderness. We need to actively participate in that process NOW...the first time. We send all of our mojo and good jah your way, wishing you success in a relentless process to do what is right. You've no idea how often John Muir's words are spoken around here..."The mountains are calling and I must go!" -Brent Armstrong, Principal
It was filthy back up in that canyon. Shells, bullet casings, and targets were everywhere. You couldn't go off-roading or trail ride without hearing gunfire. It was very unsafe because there were shooters everywhere, not just one location. Folks should have a designated area to shoot guns and clean up the mess the discharged rounds make.
This helps who exactly?
Why is your use for what is supposed to be PUBLIC lands more important than anybody else's.
People should stop bragging about getting rights and liberties taken away by the government machine.
Democratic agenda?
what does it say about soil samples where NO shooting goes on??? lead content in soil sounds pretty f---g hgh regardless...
#HappyThanksgiving from all of us at Save Red Rock! We are so thankful for all of the support we have received that has helped us continue to keep #redrockcanyon rural. Let us know why you're thankful for Red Rock! 💛
I guess thanks to God for the beautiful mountains at the red Rock and for the wonderful people that are fighting to put that with for me and for the whole world! 🙏💞🙏
Grew up in the heights. Road our bikes and camped where the loop is now. Lived in Blue Diamond Village 38 years. So blessed with all these memories.
So thankful for your care and conservation of Red Rock 🏜🧡 This is my soul place. Would be a dream to live in Summerlin or Blue Diamond 😄
Keep in mind that Red Rock Canyon & Sloan Canyon will be open for limited hours tomorrow for #ThanksgivingDay, with the scenic drive loop being open from 6 a.m. to noon, and the visitor center from 8 a.m. to noon. ... See MoreSee Less
Here’s a little bit about Hutch’s from the owner, Rob Hutchinson. “HBG literally started out of my garage while trying to help a few local cyclists sell off old bikes and gear. While my business model has evolved over the years, I am still commitment to serving my cycling community, industry, local bicycle shops, and the planet. I buy, sell, consign, and recycle new and used bicycles and components. My HUGE selection of pre-owned cycling equipment is backed by my personal guarantee. And because of my vast selection I have something in everyone’s budget.”
County Ordinance Passed to Permanently Ban Shooting in Lovell Canyon[LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, November 19] Save Red Rock (SRR) is pleased to announce that on October 2, 2019, Clark County Commissioners unanimously passed a County Ordinance introduced by Commissioner Justin Jones, which permanently bans shooting in Lovell Canyon, a rare forested and dispersed camping area behind Red Rock Canyon.
In May, Save Red Rock and the Brett Torino Foundation sponsored lead testing in Lovell Canyon. Soil tests conducted in the canyon by John Hiatt, Ph.D. in chemistry, revealed lead concentrations more than 30 times the EPA threshold for safety. Experts believe the alarming lead levels are due to unusually high deposits of lead ammunition. For years, Lovell Canyon forest has been ravaged by gunfire, dumped trash targets, and more than 455 acres were burnt from exploding tannerite targets.
Save Red Rock and Save Lovell Canyon supporters signed a petition in August 2017 requesting the Forest Service prohibit shooting in this dispersed camping area. A collaborative task force was formed, including the US Forest Service, Clark County Commissioners, Metro Police Department, Save Red Rock, Save Lovell Canyon, Clark County School District, Center for Biological Diversity, Friends of Nevada Wilderness, Sierra Club, Get Outdoors Nevada, Torino Foundation, and Spring Mountain Free Trappers to address the problems in Lovell Canyon.
“Save Red Rock was established to protect Red Rock Canyon, which is used by outdoor enthusiasts and those seeking peaceful recreation. As Red Rock’s backyard neighbor and campground, Lovell Canyon needs our attention and we hope to continue to assist in it’s restoration,” said Heather Fisher, President of Save Red Rock. “We are grateful to our Clark County Commissioners for taking action to protect our public lands and recreation areas."
