Fundraiser: Help Save Our Beautiful Wasatch Mountains
Parleys Canyon is Under ThreatA local land developer and a billion-dollar construction company want to develop a large-scale sand and gravel pit in Parleys Canyon.
Regardless of our efforts, the proposed gravel pit still threatens Parleys Canyon as the developer, contractor and their lobbyists work hard to overturn our laws to their benefit.
The Wasatch Mountains are our watershed, shared public lands, and year-round recreational mecca.

Join us to stop this open-pit mine that would negatively impact all those who live and visit the Wasatch Mountains.
