Since its inception, the project has faced opposition from environmental and Indigenous groups. These concerns relate mainly to #water usage, potential impact on local #ecosystems, and the preservation of #CulturalSites. At the very heart of the Thacker Pass issue is the safety and protection of this place as a #SacredSite, a resting place of #Paiute and #Shoshone #ancestors who were #massacred.

Seen very similar #SacredSite #Ceremonial grounds on Country looking incredibly similar to this site.
Spectacular and awe inspiring to spend the time I did there.
