Back in 1983, The Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance (SUWA) was founded around a kitchen table by a small group of people who loved Utah’s redrock wilderness and wanted to protect the best of it. They laid the foundation for an organization – a movement really – out of passion for one of the most amazing landscapes on earth.

Today, 30 years later, SUWA is stronger than ever – owing to the contributions of tens of thousands of people – who share a love for this remarkable landscape. Our goal is to permanently protect over 9 million acres of redrock wilderness, and with the help of many, we’ve managed to keep 99 percent of these lands safe.

In celebration of thirty years of success, we’re hosting a gala celebration at 7:30 p.m., on Saturday, Nov. 16, at the Utah Museum of Natural History’s Canyon Atrium. The theme of the night is Redrock and Pearls (as pearls are the symbol of a 30 year anniversary.)-

I'll be there, I hope some of you can make it as well. SUWA is a wonderful and very important organization.
