Priscilla Rattazzi first visited southwest Utah ten years ago, where she explored and photographed the majestic and barren landscapes near Lake Powell and the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. ⠀

In late 2017, the current administration ordered approximately 2,000,000 protected acres in Utah be made available for resource extraction. Nearly 1,000,000 acres would be removed from the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument alone. Together, this is the largest rollback of public lands protection in United States history.
