Wuda Ogwa

In 2018, after years of negotiation and with it's own funding, the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation purchased 350 acres of its ancestral land along Wuda Ogwa (Bear River). This full-ecological restoration is estimated to return 13,000 acre-feet of water to the Great Salt Lake each year by planting vegetation from invasive to native plants, restoring degraded agricultural fields back to wetlands, and returning the site to what it was before.

We are also working towards a stone Amphitheater and Cultural Interpretive Center to show artifacts and tell our story, both past and present.

By donating to this project, you're helping heal the land and continue this great work.
