Short Description of Activity
This two-day symposium covered topics critical to the central Wasatch area that includes Millcreek, Big and Littlewood Canyons and the upper valley of Park City. Terry Tempest Williams gave the keynote address and brought people to tears. Topics discussed included the status of the CW Natl Conservation and Recreation Area Act, water, Uinta-Wasatch-Cache national forest plan, back-country skiing biodiversity in the central Wasatch, transportation, state of the Utah ski industry, NEPA, wildfire mitigation, wilderness history, legislative process and avalanche forecasting. Five Greater Wasatch Broads attended.
Reflection/Evaluation
Excellent symposium and well worth everyone’s time. Everyone made good contacts for future partnerships including the Jordan River preservation group, Cottonwood Canyons Foundation, Grow the Flow, and more.
