The Trump administration has moved to drastically reduce the federal workforce in an effort to slash spending in Washington D.C. Those cuts will affect the agencies tasked with operating and maintaining national parks, forests and BLM land.
In the Beehive State, where the U.S. government owns 64.
4% of the land, those decisions will directly affect management of those lands -- and your experiences on them. We want to listen more, and listen better, about what’s happening to those places. But we need your help.
You’re in these spaces, and know them better than anyone else. You can help us better tell these stories. Use the form below to tell us about your experience, show us what you’re seeing, and help us chronicle what’s happening across the state.
Are the staffing decisions affecting your favorite trails? Or maybe you just want to show off the sunset shot you captured on your latest hike. We want to see that too. We appreciate you sharing your experiences and we take your privacy seriously.
We are gathering these stories to guide our coverage, and we will contact you for permission if we would like to publish any part of your submission. This reporting will be done by a team of reporters; if you have questions, you can reach Utah Lands Editor Colton Lochhead at [email protected].
