The Sierra is still stuck in our January false spring but there's plenty to do and see. Do you know which natural waterpark this is a photo at?

One week ago today, we announced that we'd finally come to an agreement with Palisades Tahoe. It is a 40% reduction in rooms, a 20% reduction in commercial space, and permanent protection of Shirley Canyon as open space. We are extremely proud of that agreement, and it adds to our over 2 decades of success in conservation. Thank you for being with us for this, and ONWARD. There is still a lot to do.

Sierra watch has been putting in the work for over a decade on this disaster proposal at Palisades Tahoe. On Tuesday, the supervisors made the expected but disappointing call to unanimously approve the project. The fight doesn’t end here but you can read about what happened Tuesday in this article by Julie Brown Davis.

The Placer County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday to approve a controversial development project that promises to reshape Palisades Tahoe.
