Mobilizing For Monuments Road Trip

An epic journey across the American West that will inspire and make a meaningful impact.

 This breathtaking roadtrip follows photographers, advocates, and leaders from The Conservation Alliance, Flickr, Rivian, and Nuestra Tierra as they travel from Colorado to California on a quest to advocate for the permanent protection of US National Monuments under the threat from destructive resource development. 

As they forge ahead meeting with local business leaders, elected officials, tribal leaders, on-the-ground champions, and recreationalists, they bear witness to the raw beauty of Dolores River’s majestic buttes, the Grand Canyon, iconic Joshua tree forests in Avi Kwa Ame, vibrant desert sunsets painting the Chuckwalla Valley, and the heartwarming scenes of people embracing the outdoors in San Gabriel Mountain.

 Together they prove that protecting public lands directly benefits our economy, culture, and way of life.
