Foundation Document

Bandelier National Monument » Foundation Document » Document List

Bandelier National Monument protects over 33,000 acres of rugged but beautiful canyon and mesa country as well as evidence of a human presence here going back over 11,000 years. Petroglyphs, dwellings carved into the soft rock cliffs, and standing masonry walls pay tribute to the early days of a culture that still survives in the surrounding communities.

The National Park Service is preparing a foundation document to inform planning and management of Bandelier National Monument. A foundation document involves affirming a national park unit's core mission and significance, most important resources and values, and the interpretive themes that tell the park's important stories. Although the foundation document is not a decision-making document and does not include actions or management strategies, it describes a shared understanding of what is most important about the monument. In this capacity, the foundation document will articulate the underlying guidance for future management and planning decisions. The monument welcomes all interested persons to participate in this effort.
