Happy birthday to the man, the myth, the legend.
Teddy Roosevelt established 5 national parks, 18 national monuments, 150 national forests and countless other public lands.
Americans are still enjoying the places he helped conserve.

Grand Canyon is open. And it's still grand.
For generations, people have come here for something remarkably simple: a view unlike anywhere else on Earth.
That hasn't changed.
As we recover from last week's flash flood and work to restore the Transcanyon Waterline, we're asking visitors to experience Grand Canyon a little differently. Bring drinking water from outside the South Rim system, conserve water during your stay and enjoy everything that makes this place extraordinary.
Watch the sunrise. Walk the Rim Trail. Explore Desert View. Earn a Junior Ranger badge. Stay for the sunset. Look up at the stars.
You don't need much to experience something this big.
Come see Grand Canyon. Help us conserve while you're here.
Keep it Grand. Every Drop Counts.

Gabby and I are praying for everyone affected by the flash floods at the Grand Canyon. The National Park Service is asking for assistance accounting for anyone who may be in the area of the floods. Reach out if you have any information that could help.
🚨 PUBLIC ASSISTANCE REQUESTED
The NPS is asking for information about more than 20 individuals who may be missing or unaccounted for following the Aug. 29 flash flood in Bright Angel Canyon and the Phantom Ranch area.
If you know of hikers/backpackers who were in the Bright Angel Creek corridor Aug. 29—or had a campground reservation there—please contact NPS Investigative Services Branch:
📞 888-653-0009
📧 [email protected]
This includes those who may have been on the North Kaibab Trail between the trailhead and Phantom Ranch, at Bright Angel Campground, or in “the Box” north of Phantom Ranch.

It has been an extraordinary year on Kīlauea and at Hawaiʻi Volcanoes NP!
🌋 One Year of Kīlauea’s Episodic Summit Eruption 🌋
Today marks one year since a unique episodic eruption began at Kīlauea’s summit on December 23, 2024—a style of activity not seen in nearly 40 years! Over the past 12 months, Halemaʻumaʻu crater has hosted 38 eruptive episodes, each lasting from a few hours to nearly two days, separated by quiet pauses.
These episodes have produced spectacular lava fountains soaring up to 1,500 feet (460 m), reshaping the summit landscape:
✅ A new 140-foot (42 m) puʻu (cone) now adorns the northwest rim
✅ The caldera floor has risen by over 220 feet (68 m)
✅ Thick blankets of tephra have transformed the terrain
This eruption is a reminder of the dynamic nature of Hawai‘i’s volcanoes—and the importance of staying informed and safe. While the eruption occurs in a closed area of Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park, it remains visible from many vantage points along the caldera rim.
Hazards associated with this activity include:
✅ Tephra is lava that travels through the air. Bigger pieces land near the vents, smaller pieces (Pele’s Hair and ash) can be carried by the wind.
✅ Volcanic gas becomes volcanic air pollution (vog) as it is transported downwind.
✅ Lava flows are contained to Halemaʻumaʻu crater.
The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory monitors this activity, providing forecasts of this rare eruption style.
