625,000 people objected. 99% opposed. The USDA is moving forward anyway to repeal the Roadless Rule – opening 45 million acres of national forest to roads, logging, and drilling. 🌲
Protections don`t fail in isolation. They fail as precedent – and Red Rock could be the next one at risk.

Meet the ranger behind the telescope: Chad Hoing! 🔭🌌
Chad is an interpretive park ranger at Red Rock Canyon NCA – and a frequent presenter at our star parties! His love of the night sky sparked on a camping trip in Wyoming, when he looked up and saw the Milky Way stretching overhead for the first time. Before Red Rock, he shared his passion at places like the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site and Jean Lafitte National Historical Park.
Now he helps our community form their own connections with the cosmos – and he`s leading the talk at our next Star Party, Chasing Comets, Finding Galaxies!

ALERT: Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease (RHD)Outbreak
The Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) has confirmed through testing that Red Rock Canyon National Convervation Area (NCA) is currently experiencing an outbreak of Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease (RHD), caused by the virus Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2 (RHDV2).

The trails we hike and bike, the walls we climb, the dark skies we love...Red Rock Canyon NCA is managed by the Bureau of Land Management. A proposed FY27 budget would gut the BLM:
• 34% budget cut
• 76% cut to National Conservation Lands like Red Rock
• 61% slashed from recreation
Congress can reject it — but only if they hear from us.

3 million acres. That's how much protection Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante just lost — enough to virtually erase both monuments. These lands are an Indigenous homeland stewarded since time immemorial, home to Tribal cultural resources, wildlife, and clean water. We can't stay quiet. Sign the petition and tell Congress to defend them.
