“We won, they lost.”
That’s the perspective of Mountain Capital Partners on their supposed right to desecrate the sacred Peaks outside of Flagstaff, Arizona, despite generations of resistance from Indigenous Nations and tribes with cultural ties to the Peaks since time immemorial.

Join us for Episodes 8 and 9 of our Snowbowl series as we speak with former Coconino Forest Supervisor, Laura Jo West. Hear what it was like to work with Snowbowl and its parent company, Mountain Capital Partners; why Laura Jo’s approach to forest management posed a threat to the company; how she was ultimately removed from all decisions related to Snowbowl; and her thoughts on how the agency must evolve.

🎧 Listen now wherever you get your podcasts, and follow us @protectgrandcanyon to stay connected. Every episode shared is a step toward protecting sacred places for future generations.
