2017 Grand Gulch-Cedar Mesa Plateau
Located in southeastern Utah's San Juan county and managed the by the Monticello Office of the BLM, the Grand Gulch-Cedar Mesa Plateau area is a spectacular wilderness of nearly 800,000 acres containing ancient ruins and 2,000 years of history. The ancestral Puebloan (Anasazi) civilization flourished in its massive red sandstone walls, hunting on the mesa tops and growing maize and beans on canyon terraces. Ancient dwellings, pottery, tools and rock art are abundant.
Our service project is an ongoing partnership with BLM to address its most pressing on-the-ground needs on the mesa top and in the canyons. The exact location of the projects will be determined just prior to our trip, but will include general trail maintenance, possibly illegal campsite removal or wilderness boundary maintenance. Summer storms and water availability tend to dictate our exact project and location and our work plan frequently changes due to conditions in the canyons, so participants are asked to remain flexible.
