A Celebration
Now that Flickr is working again...
President Biden just declared two new National Monuments in California- Chuckwalla near Joshua Tree National Park and Sattitla Highlands in my neck of the woods near Lava Beds National Monument. This is Medicine Lake, part of the new Sattitla National Monument. It is the largest volcano in the Pacific Northwest and was under threat from geothermal development and sacred to the Pit River tribes. Many thanks to them and others for making this happen. As to what might happen to this protected gem in the next 4 years, I don't even want to think about it!
