The very last team of Earthwatch's expedition "Wildlife Trails Of The American West," lead by longtime Earthwatch scientist Dr. Bill Newmark, is scheduled to field Jan 24-31, 2010-- and we need just one more volunteer to make sure this last team can run!

Red Butte Canyon is the only Research Natural Area in the Wasatch... Range and is closed to the general public. Located above the housing for the 2002 Winter Olympics, the site offers a stunning view of the Great Salt Lake valley. Elevation changes in the canyon are small in comparison to other canyons along the Wasatch Front, with the mouth beginning at 5,020 feet/1,530 meters and the highest walls extending up to 8,235 feet/2,510 meters. More than 40 mammal species have been recorded in the canyon including mule deer, moose, elk, mountain lion, coyote, red fox, and bobcat.Read More

CCF's Bush Project was featured on BBC World News throughout October, and as any Earthwatchers who've worked with them can testify, is a stro...ng contender for an award that regognises grass roots projects that put something back into the community and truly make a difference.Read More

Hi Peyton--Brian is still involved with us directly, yes, but the important thing to remember about Earthwatch is that it's not about the staff--or even the scientists we suppprt--it's about the citizen scientists from all walks of life--students, retirees, corporate employees, families, educators, grandparents, etc.,--who are out in the field, ... Read Moremaking critical research possible. Staff, scientists, and volunteers may therefore come and go, but each leaves a legacy picked up by the next and taken forward. Thanks for checking out our Facebook page, and we hope you and your grandson do get in the field together soon!

Claire Doe I've just received my Briefing Notes for Penguins of South Africa in May 2010.....I'm really excited. This will be my fifth EW project having already done ones in the Hebrides, the Kalahari, Monterey and Nova Scotia. I can't imagine a year without an EW trip.....such a fabulous way to get involved in conservation, see wonderful areas of the world and make friends with like minded people :-)

This extraordinary excavation site is in a quiet residential area with views of the River Tyne and the North Sea. For more than a decade, Earthwatch teams have helped map more than 1,000 square meters of pre-Roman and Roman settlement here, excavating jewelry, armor, game pieces, and ceramics.
