Check out our new audio postcard about the Gila Wilderness! Hear from biologist Leanna Torres and Apache backcountry guide Joe Saenz about why the Gila is so special and the threats it faces today—from jet flyover to dams. @wildearthguard @TorreyHouse roadto30.org/greatergilapos…

Places like the Greater Gila stir our souls and break our hearts and that’s why we love them and need them and fight relentlessly to protect them. They are the hallowed ground where we are reminded of what’s at stake. #KeepItWild wildearthguardians.org/brave-new-wild…
