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).
🔗 more info: https://www.ndow.org/blog/rabbit-hemorrhagic-disease/
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.

Meet your nocturnal neighbor: the kit fox 🦊
North America`s smallest fox comes alive after dark, hunting under the cover of night. But light pollution disrupts the natural rhythms desert wildlife depend on.
That`s why we`re working toward an Urban Night Sky Place designation for Red Rock - darker skies mean healthier wildlife. 🌙

Summer is here, and the heat at Red Rock Canyon is no joke! ☀️ Hiking? Go early, hydrate often, and turn back before you`re tired.
A few desert essentials:
💧 At least 1 gallon of water per person
🧢 Hat, sunscreen, and light layers
📱 Tell someone your route and return time
Also, the canyon will still be there at sunset. Choose cooler times of day to recreate safely.
