Wild Places
Explore the lands and waters we are working to protect
Mason Cummings, TWS
America’s wild public lands offer an amazing array of sights, experiences and freedoms. From the majesty of the Rocky Mountains to the drama of the Grand Canyon, these lands protect clean water, wildlife habitat and our freedom to hike, hunt, fish, camp and connect with nature. They are diverse, exceptional and they belong to all of us.
Sharing these places means more than enjoying them. It means caring for them, defending them from harm and making sure the next generation can experience them in good health. Explore the places we’re working to protect and join us in the cause.
