Federal Land Grab Overreach, the Real Issues at Bears Ears and Escalante Staircase.
I went specifically to this Utah region to look for Bears Ears and stayed in the Escalante Staircase gas station/motel. There is NO access to any of these areas, we cannot even verify that these photos shown are of the actual areas. The Antiquities Act says it covers only the land for the monument and supporting, but 1.9 million acres (larger than Yellowstone NP) is 9 times larger than necessary. It is still 250,000 acres after the 'reduction'. Already in the region, are several national parks such as Arches, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Natural Bridges, Glen Canyon, and Zion. Mesa Verde, Moab, and Monument Valley are only a 1/2 day away too.
