Happy to be celebrating the 32nd year as a National Conservation Area! ⛰️ From @blm_nevada: 32 never looked so good! Red Rock Canyon Recreational Lands were set aside in 1967, and redesignated as a National Conservation Area on November 16, 1990 -- 32 years ago today. ⛰️ What exactly is a National Conservation Area? Congress designates National Conservation Areas to conserve, protect, enhance, and manage for current and future generations. These areas offer exceptional scientific, cultural, ecological, historical, and recreational value. ⛰️ What is your favorite part about Red Rock Canyon? 📷: Courtney Knapp [Image description: Red Rock escarpment with the sunset illuminating clouds in yellow.] ⛰️ #RedRockCanyonNCA #redrock #conservation
