In a tourist town still struggling to climb out from pandemic restrictions, Canadian tourists are canceling trips

As part of the Trump administration’s recent efforts to cut federal spending, the National Park Service has fired around 1,000 employees.

KSL talked with several hikers in Arches National Park about their hopes and fears after widespread National Park Service layoffs.

Utah’s elected leaders, at the local, state and national levels, should be raising holy hell about these moves — those who supposedly have the ear of the new administration most of all,” writes the editorial board.

Three former superintendents of Utah’s "Mighty 5" national parks say the Trump administration’s firings of park staff will degrade not only visitors’ experiences, but also the lands and history the parks preserve.

America’s national parks saw more than 331 million visits last year, a record. But the Trump administration does not want to call attention to those numbers amid mass firings of rangers and other employees.

There was no press release, no sparkling quote from the National Park Service's acting director, no agency public conversation about the record 331.9 million people who explored the National Park System in 2024.

Boy did Americans and other visitors make good use of US National Park Service sites in 2024 – enough to set a record.

Two people received sentences Friday for trespassing onto a historical site at Canyonlands National Park, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, District of Utah.

Efforts to end the National Park Service's growing policy not to accept cash at sites in the National Park System have been revived with an amended complaint filed in federal court in Washington.

In a move to tackle what it says is a bloated federal government, the Trump administration has laid off or terminated 10,000 workers, including Utah residents. This impacts federal lands and cites throughout Utah. Some cities and lawmakers are stepping up to help not only the workers, but an underwater government.
