    Flagstaff News – The National Park Service has issued a federal register notice announcing its determination that 34,194 acres, or 96.5% of Wupatki National Monument’s total 35,424 acres, meet criteria indicating eligibility for preservation as wilderness under the Wilderness Act of 1964. The notice can be found here.  

    As a next step, and in accordance with policy, the NPS plans to prepare a wilderness study to determine if any portions of the monument should be recommended for inclusion in the National Wilderness Preservation System as defined in the Wilderness Act. The study is expected to begin in the next year and will include opportunities for public review and comment.  

    This determination does not impact current visitor access or management at Wupatki National Monument. The lands eligible for wilderness designation are currently managed in a way that preserves and protects wilderness character. In addition, this eligibility determination and potential future studies will not impact the Black Falls Crossing Road, an administrative road that provides important access to the east side of the Little Colorado River.

    The Bloody Machine
    By Tommy Acosta
    What is a life anyway? A single “life?” Is it nothing more than a collection of emotions and thoughts, reverberating pain and pleasure, hopes, dreams and fear? Are we merely meat; flesh and blood creations encapsulating what we believe is a soul? Or is a single life the microcosm and macrocosm of human life on earth, each one of us a unique representation of who we believe we are and the whole of humanity at once? We are born. We grow old. We die. Everything we experience is but a dream between those two points. Or are we manifestations of a Divine Creator, every one of us complete in the image that we were made? So, we are told.
