Form 990-EZ, Part III, Line 31 LITTLE COLORADO RIVER LCR CONFLUENCE DEVELOPMENT - The organization continues to work in strong oppostion to a proposed development called the Grand Canyon Escalade on the east rim of the Grand Canyon near the confluence of the Little Colorado and Colorado Rivers. GCRG believes that the proposed development which would include a massive development on the rim, as well as a tramway down to river level with an amphitheater, a restaurant and a raised river walk raises serious questions about the impact of up to 3 million visitors a year to an area that is remote, ecologically sensitive and sacred to numerous tribes, as well as a direct threat to the wilderness qualities of Grand Canyon itself. GCRGs efforts in FY 2014 included sending regular updates to our members and disseminating the lastest press coverage by email and through social media, communicating/strategizing with other non-profits including the Grand Canyon Trust and Save the Confluence the Navajo families who would be directly affected by the development, and publishing an article in the Fall 2013 issue of the Boatmans Quarterly Review.
