Tourism is sucking Utah dry. Now it faces a choice - growth or survival?
Booming expansion to meet the demands of thousands of visitors every year is squeezing dwindling water supply.
Thousands of tourists descend on the Virgin River waterway year after year, even as this region and others across the American west fall deeper into drought. Fuelled by the climate crisis and the overuse of dwindling water resources, the drought threatens the safety and sustainability of the spectacular sights; at the same time, tourists and the industries that cater to them contribute to an unfolding crisis in the cherished lands that brought them there.
While western states grapple over how to ration the rapidly declining water resources and how to secure a future in which the climate crisis is driving aridification and severe storms in this part of Utah.
Officials are searching for new sources of water as it grows more scarce in the drought-stricken American west.
Left: Hikers make their way down the Angels Landing in Zion National Park, Utah. The park has implemented a lottery for the trail due to it’s popularity and narrow and steep trail. Right: Hikers on switchbacks on the West Rim Trail.

Tourism is sucking Utah dry. Now it faces a choice - growth or survival?
Booming expansion to meet the demands of thousands of visitors every year is squeezing dwindling water supply.
Thousands of tourists descend on the Virgin River waterway year after year, even as this region and others across the American west fall deeper into drought. Fuelled by the climate crisis and the overuse of dwindling water resources, the drought threatens the safety and sustainability of the spectacular sights; at the same time, tourists and the industries that cater to them contribute to an unfolding crisis in the cherished lands that brought them there.
While western states grapple over how to ration the rapidly declining water resources and how to secure a future in which the climate crisis is driving aridification and severe storms in this part of Utah.
Officials are searching for new sources of water as it grows more scarce in the drought-stricken American west.
A new development is seen being built on Sept. 3, 2022 outside of St. George, Utah.

‘Our biggest challenge? Lack of imagination’: the scientists turning the desert green. In China, scientists have turned vast swathes of arid land into a lush oasis. Now a team of maverick engineers want to do the same to the Sinai.
Ties van der Hoeven is a co-founder of the Weather Makers, a Dutch firm of “holistic engineers” with a plan to regreen the Sinai peninsula – the small triangle of land that connects Egypt to Asia. Within a couple of decades, the Weather Makers believe, the Sinai could be transformed from a hot, dry, barren desert into a green haven teeming with life: forests, wetlands, farming land, wild flora and fauna. A regreened Sinai would alter local weather patterns and even change the direction of the winds, bringing more rain, the Weather Makers believe – hence their name.
The watertanks of the greenhouse of The Weathermakers. The tanks are designed to stimulate diatom growth, which effectively take up nutrients from the water in order to create an optimal functioning ecosystem, Rosmalen, The Netherlands
