The American people have 21 spectacular new national monuments to explore and to cherish. Canyons of the Ancients, Grand Canyon-Parashant, Pompeys Pillar — their very names evoke mystery, wonder and adventure. Fifteen of these monuments are part of the National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS) and are destined to become as precious to Americans of the 21st century as our National Parks have been to each of us.
