Advocacy

The Washington Canyon Coalition is committed to ensuring access to our canyons in a way that is low-impact, sustainable, safe, and beneficial to the broader community. We communicate land manager requests to our community, and represent our community's needs to our land managers. We rely on our community to weigh in on key issues.

The Washington Canyon Coalition facebook group is a great place to share anything you learn concerning access, and a great place for the community to discuss so that we approach partners and land managers with a unified voice.

Advocacy plans for 2025 include:
