Despite Challenging Year AW Found Lots of Success in 2020

In difficult times rivers bring us solace. Those rivers we spend the most time with fill our hearts with truth and wisdom. One of those truths is that we are the guardians of our rivers. For many, the past year was incredibly challenging, but because our community rallied around us, our resilient team was able to continue working hard to protect, restore, and ensure our safe access to flowing water. Thank you! Our stewardship work in 2020 played an integral role in the historic passage of the Great American Outdoors Act, killed a dam project in the San Joaquin River Gorge in California, and stopped a gold mine at the put-in for the Numbers run on the Arkansas River in Colorado, among hundreds of other success stories for whitewater rivers in 2020.
