Fossil fuel exploration on these sites is a threat to the people who live on the surrounding land and to Chaco Canyon, New Mexico's crown jewel and the ancestral home of Native Americans of the Southwest. Protection from oil and gas activity around Chaco Canyon is essential to protecting New Mexico's uhique history, environment and vital resources. Instead of continuing to develop fossil fuels on our public lands, we need to make a just transition to renewable energy to create ways to engage in environmentally sustainable, as well as culturally appropriate, economic development. We ask you to cancel the lease sale of parcels: NM-201906-012-24; 26-46; 48-51 and NM-201906-025 & 47 to protect Chaco Canyon and the Greater Chaco Region from oil and gas activities that could destroy this designated World Heritage Site, a landmark like no other on Earth.

  • Cultural Heritage the Mountains and Foothills of North Carolina Have Over Many Centuries Fostered a Rich Mosaic of Cultural Heritage
    Western North Carolina Vitality Index Cultural Heritage www.wncvitalityindex.org The mountains and foothills of North Carolina have over many centuries fostered a rich mosaic of cultural heritage. The birthplace of the Cherokee’s advanced early civilization, the region is home today to the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, which continues to preserve many facets of traditional Cherokee culture. Beginning in the eighteenth century, European and African settlers moved into the mountains. The relative isolation of mountain life helped these settlers refine and preserve many traditions, most notably handmade crafts, traditional music, and local agricultural practices. Today, these distinctive cultural legacies are celebrated as living traditions, providing employment to master artists and tradition bearers and drawing tourists from across the globe to experience the region’s craft galleries, music halls, festivals, museums, farms, and local cuisine. photo courtesy of Blue Ridge National this project has been funded by Heritage Area a project of Blue Ridge National Heritage Area Designation A National Heritage Area is a place designated by the United States Congress where natural, cultural, historic, and recreational resources combine to form a cohesive, nationally distinctive landscape arising from patterns of human activity shaped by geography. Currently, there are 49 National Heritage Areas across the United States, where each area shares how their people, resources, and histories come together to provide experiences that “tell America’s story” and to encourage the community to join together around a common theme and promote the cultural, natural, and recreational benefits of the area. In November 2003, Western North Carolina (WNC) was designated the Blue Ridge National Heritage Area in recognition of the region’s agriculture, craft heritage, traditional music, the distinctive living traditions of Cherokee culture, and rich natural heritage, and their significance to the country.

  • Big Butt Trail – Pisgah National Forest, NC
    Big Butt Trail – Pisgah National Forest, NC Length Difficulty Streams Views Solitude Camping 15.5 mls N/A Hiking Time: 8 hours and 30 minutes with 2 hours of breaks Elev. Gain: 4,365 ft Parking: Park at Cane River Gap. 35.81020, -82.34838 By Trail Contributor: Zach Robbins The Big Butt Trail, despite its comical name, is a tough hike along the western peaks of the Black Mountains. Most hikers begin at the Balsam Gap trailhead on the Blue Ridge Parkway, the easier way to reach the viewpoints. This is seasonal access however, since the parkway is typically closed all winter in this section. Year-round access is possible at Cane River Gap, deep in the backcountry of the Big Ivy section of the Pisgah National Forest. You may think of the Big Butt Trail as the little cousin to the Black Mountain Crest Trail. It is shorter, not as difficult, and crosses peaks just below 6,000 feet. At the beginning you’ll face a long, switchbacking ascent through beautiful hardwood forests to the mile-high ridgeline between Big Butt and Little Butt. The Black Mountains form a U around the Cane River Valley, but all of the tall, well- known peaks are on the east side of the range. That doesn’t diminish the hike though, it provides arguably the best views of the eastern Black Mountains from Little Butt. After Little Butt the trail continues south past Point Misery then ends at Balsam Gap. From here you have the option of following the Mountains-to-Sea Trail east to a great view below the 6,320-foot Blackstock Knob.
