Upcoming Events

Join us for the Grand Opening Celebration of the Bluff River Trail in Bluff, Utah on Friday, April 25, with programs continuing throughout the weekend! 

Come celebrate this community achievement, which is years in the making! Learn about the newly opened Bluff River Trail section connecting the Town of Bluff to Sand Island, the result of years of collaboration between Tribes, agencies, and organizations including BEP.

This newly accessible section includes the only ADA section of trail in Bears Ears National Monument, and will improve access for Indigenous elders and those of all abilities. This multi-year collaborative project would not have been possible without the support of the Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Commission, Bears Ears Partnership, Bluff River Trail Committee, World Monuments Fund, the State of Utah, Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation, Eccles Foundation, David Kelby Johnson Memorial Foundation, private individuals, and many more partners. 

Join us for a Dark Sky Party and enjoy Bluff’s spectacular dark skies! All experience levels welcome. We will provide several telescopes for you to use, and you are welcome to bring your own.

Become a Visit With Respect Ambassador by signing up for our Ambassador Training on Saturday, April 26. Learn more about helping protect sites, trails, and this immensely beautiful cultural landscape. Be the first person to inform visitors about responsible visitation. Who else to educate the public than Ambassadors who truly have a love for this landscape than you? 

Join us for Spring Stewardship Day on Sunday, April 27! Volunteer for cleaning and beautification projects in and around the Bears Ears National Monument.
