Показать описание
Since 1996 these Hoodoos were under the protection of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, half way between Kanab, UT and Page, AZ. Unfortunately, due to Presidential Proclamation 9682 these Hoodoos are no longer within the protected boarders of this National Monument. The area appears to still be categorized as a BLM Wilderness Study Area. According to the BLM...

" WSAs are places that have wilderness characteristics; that is a minimum size, naturalness, and outstanding opportunities for recreation which make them eligible for designation as wilderness."

"Until Congress makes a decision to add a WSA, or ends consideration, the BLM manages WSAs to not impair their suitability for designation as wilderness."
