Created by President Obama in 2016 and eviscerated by the Trump administration in 2017, Bears Ears National Monument in southeastern Utah contains more archaeological sites than any other region in the United States. Now threatened by oil and gas drilling, unrestricted grazing, and looting of cultural treasures, the region is at the center of the greatest environmental battle in America in many decades. Weaving personal memoir with archival research, David Roberts sings the praises of this unique place that he has been exploring for 25 years.
