Meet Your New National Monuments
Thanks to steadfast work of Tribes, countless advocates, and California communities, California is fortunate to have three new national monuments.
The new designations honor Tribal requests, help boost local economies, ensure access to nature, and mark a leap forward in the State of California’s goal of protecting 30 percent of lands and coastal waters by 2030 (30×30). Help us protect our national monuments and other public lands by taking a stand against recent federal attacks.
This incredible desert landscape is sacred to the area’s Tribes, rich in biodiversity, and home to stunning visitor attractions like Painted Canyon and Corn Spring. It even includes important World War II history!
Nestled within the Shasta-Trinity, Klamath, and Modoc National Forests of northeastern California, Sáttítla, commonly known as the Medicine Lake Highlands, are a culturally significant, geologically unique, water rich, and life sustaining region.
