Tell Oregon’s Senators: It’s Time for an Owyhee Canyonlands National Monument

John Aylward

The Owyhee Canyonlands is not protected yet and the clock is ticking on 2024.

This is why we are calling on Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley to do everything in their power to protect the Owyhee before the end of the year. This includes continuing to champion their legislation protecting more than 1.1 million acres of Wilderness, while also calling on President Biden to prepare a national monument designation for the landscape.

There is a point in the Owyhee region, in northwestern Nevada, that is, at 115 miles away, as far away as you can get from a McDonalds in the U.S.
