Who's been to Fossil Creek, AZ? Our ambassadors are lucky enough to enjoy the rare features and beautiful sights this Wild and Scenic river provides each summer. We monitor water quality to illustrate the correlation of peaks in E. Coli with poor #leavenotrace methods!

My fav!

It’s an Arizona treasure for sure. The Forest Service is currently working on a long-term management plan. https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/coconino/landmanagement/planning/?cid=stelprdb5410835

As a AZ native I have never been to Fossil falls. I have been to the confluence of Fossil and the Verde river. Sure is a beautiful place.

Not in a while, but many great memories! (Except the road there, 2 moms 4-5 kids crammed into a Chevy Malibu!) Beth Feagan

Fossil Creek is both the happiest and saddest place for me... happy because of the enormous, mind blowing beauty of the creek and ecosystem - sad because of the total (cultural almost) lack of respect trashing of the landscape. I just can't figure out the motivation of humans to trash any place at all, much less one so magical. I can't stand to go back because it's enormously emotional and I find difficulty in biting my tongue.

Please join us tomorrow in honoring and celebrating the life of a valued member of our community, Paul Lindberg. For those of you that knew Paul, you know that his generous contributions to the community have made a huge difference in learning about, protecting, and preserving our beautiful watershed, community, and state and his legacy will live on. Paul's memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, September 23, at the Sedona Performing Arts Center, which is located on the Sedona Red Rock High School campus at 995 Upper Red Rock Loop Road. Paul's family has generously provided the following list of organizations for charitable donations in lieu of flowers: Arizona Archeological Society: https://www.azarchsoc.org/ Oak Creek Watershed Council: https://oakcreekwatershed.org/ Jerome State Historical Park: https://azstateparks.com/jerome The Highlands Center: https://highlandscenter.org/.

Our organization depends on your support. While we receive grants to host educational and clean-up events that benefit Oak Creek directly- we depend heavily on donations to cover the many other costs of running a non-profit that can be difficult to receive funding for. Therefore, donations are incredibly necessary to keep us afloat and allow us to continue doing all that we do. They are tax deductible and are a great way for you to determine where tax money goes! Supporting our environment and preserving areas that will need it well into the future. Please consider donating today, no amount is too small. Thank you! <3
