Agency: Natural Resources

Line Item: Range Creek

Function

Hidden in the Book Cliffs of Emery County between the Tavaputs Plateau and the Green River, Range Creek valley was once the site of numerous Fremont Indian villages. Until recently, this remote canyon was private property and was off-limits to the general public. Because of its isolation, the thousand-year-old Fremont Indian artifacts are numerous and well preserved. Recently, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources obtained ownership to this area and implemented a policy of limited public access.

In FY2004, the property was acquired with Land and Water Conservation funding. During that Legislative session, DNR received an appropriation to manage and secure the property. The Division of Wildlife Resources was given the charge to define and implement a management plan. Future operations of Range Creek Wildlife Management Area will continue as outlined in the management plan with the primary focus being security. This property will stay in public ownership regardless of the managing agency.
