Northern Rockies

About Our Work

Few places are blessed with as much majestic scenery as the Northern Rockies. The towering Grand Tetons overlook vast meadows and forests, while grizzly bears and gray wolves roam Yellowstone's spectacular wilderness. Our Northern Rockies office protects the region's natural resources by curbing methane gas extraction and pushing for greater federal protection of gray wolves and other imperiled wildlife.
