Bureau Proposes Opening Up Utah Wilderness to Drilling

last weekend i spent a bright and sunny and beautiful weekend with a dear friend exploring petroglyphs in nine mile canyon in central eastern utah. the cultural heritage located is incredible and i wish more people coudl appreciate the canyon. then, today i read the following in the washington post. the canyon (a designated scenic byway and historical site), and adjacent desolation canyon will be up for drilling leases, to be sold by BLM. this makes me very sad. tuesday the list of leases will be posted and i plan on commenting! if you would like to see some of our american history and heritage preserved, i encourage you to comment too!
