Thank You!

On this day (January 3) in 1975, President Gerald Ford signed the Grand Canyon Enlargement Act which expanded Grand Canyon National Park to its current size by recognizing the entire Grand Canyon — from the mouth of the Paria River to the Grand Wash Cliffs — as a natural feature of national significance.

This bill, which was strongly endorsed by Arizona Senator Goldwater, Senator Fannin and Congressman Rhodes, approximately doubled the size of Grand Canyon National Park and also added some 185,000 acres to the Havasupai Indian Reservation.

You can review the bill here:https://www.congress.gov/93/statute/STATUTE-88/STATUTE-88-Pg2089.pdf

🎊 Happy New Year, everyone!

2024 brought its challenges, but it also shaped me, strengthened me, and prepared me for this exciting new chapter of life in 2025. Here's to a year filled with adventure, growth, and endless possibilities!

May this year shine as brightly as the Northern Lights in your lives. Let’s step into 2025 with hope, gratitude, and unstoppable energy.

This!

We all have that friend that drags us on a hike—and it's more to your benefit than you might think. 🥾

If you participate this year, chances are you're getting a lot more out of the experience than quality family time, beautiful vistas, and a breath of fresh air.

Hiking provides a host of mental and physical health advantages unmatched by other forms of exercise. Learn more about why the upsides of hiking are worth climbing for at: https://on.natgeo.com/4gyHGJi
