More than 875 areas, including national monuments, national conservation areas, wilderness areas, wilderness study areas, wild and scenic rivers, and national scenic and historic trails make up this collection of notable places. National Conservation Lands are designated to conserve the diverse ecological, cultural, and historical resources found within them. They are also recognized for their recreational, educational, and scientific values. The BLM is proud to recognize these special lands with an ongoing set of vintage-style posters." Eagletail Mountains Wilderness"More than 97,000 acres of Arizona’s Sonoran Desert were selected for protection as part of the Eagletail Mountains Wilderness. Because of its topographic diversity and magnificent scenery, the area is a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts—from backpackers, to rock climbers, to photographers, and many others. Rock arches, natural spires, and jagged ridgelines are among the area’s geologic wonders, contrasting with sandy desert washes extending as long as 8 miles. The quiet presence of raptors, coyotes, and great horned owls mesmerizes the attentive visitor, while petroglyphs discovered in the rocks reveal secrets of some of the earliest Native American inhabitants in the Southwest. The area—which includes 15 miles of the Eagletail Mountains’ ridgeline, a highly recognizable monolith known as Courthouse Rock, and a vast desert plain—was designated a wilderness area by Congress as part of the Arizona Desert Wilderness Act of 1990. Today, it is managed by the Bureau of Land Management as part of the National Landscape Conservation System." Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument"Unspoiled and rugged, the lands of the Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument stretch across almost 375,000 acres in central Montana. Towering cliffs—their slopes fragrant with the sharp smell of sagebrush—flank the Upper Missouri National Wild and Scenic River, which flows for 149 miles through the monument. A spectacular array of animals and plants calls this area home, taking advantage of the life-sustaining coulees (natural runoff or drainage areas) that abound. No less notable for its history than for its wildlife, the Upper Missouri River Breaks region was first documented in 1805 by Lewis and Clark, who traveled the river during their expedition west. There, the explorers encountered Native Americans, who had lived in the area for many years. The land later became a source of hope and inspiration for early American settlers, not to mention a sanctuary for outlaws eager to hide in the labyrinth of the badlands. Fur trappers and traders, too, could be seen moving their goods downriver, waters that would later reflect the distinctive designs of modern steamboats powering along. The unique character of the Upper Missouri River Breaks continues to flavor the local lifestyle, boosting the regional economy through tourism and other industries. Since 2001, when a Presidential proclamation designated the area a national monument, the Bureau of Land Management has managed these lands as part of the National Landscape Conservation System." Headwaters Forest Reserve in California"Spectacular in its beauty, the Headwaters Forest Reserve is also a vital ally in conservation efforts to protect the most iconic forest species in the Pacific Northwest. Located 6 miles southeast of Eureka, California, these 7,542 acres of public lands feature magnificent stands of old-growth redwood trees that provide nesting habitat for the marbled murrelet (a small Pacific seabird) and the northern spotted owl. Both species are listed as threatened under theEndangered Species Act, as are the coho salmon, chinook salmon, and steelhead trout that have important habitat in the reserve’s stream systems. Joining forces, the federal government and the State of California acquired the land for the reserve in 1999 to protect these important resources. The historic value of a once busy mill town named Falk is also commemorated in interpretive signs along the Elk River Trail, which follows an old logging road to the now vanished community. The BLM partners with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to manage the Headwaters Forest Reserve as part of the National Landscape Conservation System." Rio Grande Del Norte National Monument"Go for a hike and listen for an eagle as it soars above an 800-foot gorge, fish in world-class trout waters, marvel at a herd of elk crossing the desolate plateau, or raft alongside the river otter. You have entered the natural world of the Río Grande del Norte National Monument! The landscape of this special place in northern New Mexico is a showcase of stark, wide open spaces covering 242,500 acres. At an average elevation of 7,000 feet, the monument is dotted by volcanic cones and cut by steep canyons. While the Río Grande carves a deep gorge through layers of volcanic basalt flows and ash, nearby cottonwoods and willows shelter abundant songbirds and waterfowl. An amazing array of wildlife dwells among the piñon and juniper woodlands and the mountaintops of ponderosa, Douglas fir, aspen, and spruce (some 500 years old). Raptors, mule deer, cougar, and black bear are not uncommon. Be alert! At any moment bighorn sheep may appear! Since prehistoric times this area has attracted human activity, as evidenced by petroglyphs, prehistoric dwelling sites, and many other types of archaeological discoveries. Abandoned homesteads from the 1930s reflect more recent activity. On March 25, 2013, a Presidential proclamation designated the area a national monument, managed by the Bureau of Land Management as part of the National Landscape Conservation System." San Juan Islands National Monument"Situated in the northern reaches of Washington State’s Salish Sea, the San Juan Islands are a uniquely beautiful archipelago of more than 450 islands, rocks, and pinnacles. Within this area, the San Juan Islands National Monument encompasses nearly 1,000 acres on 75 rocks and islands. Woodlands, grasslands, and wetlands are intermixed with rocky balds, bluffs, intertidal areas, and sandy beaches. This wide array of habitats supports an equally varied collection of wildlife. Blacktail deer, river otter, mink, and a diversity of birdlife—including golden and bald eagles, the marbled murrelet, and the recently reintroduced western bluebird—thrive in this mild climate. Orcas, seals, and porpoises also attract a regular stream of wildlife watchers. With two historic lighthouses and a 12,000-year heritage of Coast Salish communities, the historical landscape is equally evocative. On March 25, 2013, a Presidential proclamation designated the area a national monument, managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) as part of the National Landscape Conservation System. The best way to see the islands is by recreational watercraft, although some of the islands are accessible by ferry. Inquire before planning your trip." The Oregon National Historic Trail in Wyoming"National historic trails can take us back, returning us literally and symbolically to a point of departure in geography and time. Who among us has not wondered what it was like for America’s pioneers to lie on the open ground of the western high plains on a starlit night and to hear wolves howl in the distance? To walk in the footsteps of these men and women today is to glimpse their experience and to feel their purpose and courage. National historic trails help us recreate this unique chapter in American history when, starting more than 170 years ago, some 500,000 emigrants made their way overland to the far western edge of the continent. Their determination resulted in 12 new states joining the Republic between 1840 and 1890, all west of the Mississippi River. Congress designates national historic trails “to protect historic landscapes and inform our curiosity about the past.” Visitors to the Oregon National Historic Trail have more than 350 miles to explore on Wyoming public lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). One pristine stretch extends a full 35 miles entirely on BLM lands—farther than most emigrant parties could walk in a single day. (This poster depicts a portion of that area.) Thanks to the foresight and dedication of preservation-minded citizens and volunteers, the Oregon, Mormon Pioneer, California, and Pony Express routes are all managed as national historic trails. BLM-managed sections are part of the National Landscape Conservation System. The BLM is proud to interpret the great westward migration, and other significant aspects of American history, as caretaker of more miles of national historic trails than any other federal agency." Canyons of the Ancients National Monument in Colorado"Deep in the heart of the Colorado Plateau is a vast landscape that contains the highest known density of archaeological sites in the nation—Canyons of the Ancients National Monument. Here, ancient cliff dwellings, great kivas, sacred springs, and rock art sites are spread across a rugged landscape. The 178,000-acre monument in southwestern Colorado holds evidence of cultures and traditions spanning thousands of years, offering unparalleled opportunities to study and experience how cultures in the American Southwest lived and adapted over time. More than 100 years of archaeological exploration and research have led to more than 6,350 recorded sites representing all time periods of occupation, including Paleoindian, Archaic, Basketmaker, and Ancestral Puebloan, as well as historic Ute, Navajo, and Anglo cultures. A Presidential proclamation established the monument in 2000, making it a part of the Bureau of Land Management’s National Conservation Lands. The BLM’s Anasazi Heritage Center is a museum of the Ancestral Puebloan (or Anasazi) culture and other native cultures in the Four Corners region. It is also the starting point for visitors to the Canyons of the Ancients National Monument." Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in Utah"The Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument spans nearly 1.9 million acres of America’s public lands in southern Utah. From its stunning Grand Staircase of cliffs and terraces, across the rugged Kaiparowits Plateau, to the wonders of the Escalante River canyons, the monument’s size and remote character offer a spectacular array of scenic, scientific, and historic resources. World-class dinosaur excavations here have yielded more information about ecosystem change at the end of the dinosaur era than almost any other place in the world. Among the fossil finds, paleontologists have identified dinosaurs not previously known to have inhabited this area, as well as several new species and dozens of soft tissue impressions. One documented species, Kosmoceratops richardsoni, is the most ornate-headed dinosaur ever found. Designated by Presidential proclamation on September 18, 1996, the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is the Bureau of Land Management’s first and largest national monument. Today, it is part of the BLM’s National Landscape Conservation System." Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area in Florida"Located on south Florida’s populous Atlantic coast is a small vestige of natural Florida—the 120-acre Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area. Although small, the site’s location at the confluence of the Loxahatchee River and Indian River Lagoon—just one-quarter mile from the Atlantic Ocean—provides for a wealth of natural diversity and has been of strategic importance for human activity for more than 5,000 years. The site is widely known for its namesake lighthouse constructed in 1860, but beyond the lighthouse, the site houses unique military history and evidence of human occupation dating back to 3,000 B.C. More remarkable still, the site encompasses several rare and sensitive natural plant communities, providing habitat for more than 25 special status species. Visitors to the area can tour the historic Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse, experience native coastal and upland habitats, watch for manatees, or engage in one of a multitude of interpretive and educational programs. Congress designated the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area on May 8, 2008. Acre -for -acre, the site is among the Bureau of Land Management’s most diverse National Conservation Lands." Steese National Conservation Area"A half day’s drive from Fairbanks, Alaska, Steese National Conservation Area offers majestic scenery, solitude, outstanding recreation, and important wildlife habitat. This 1.2 million-acre area, straddling the remote Steese Highway, provides a breathtaking summer backdrop for hiking, backpacking, camping, fishing, berry picking, and hunting under Alaska’s midnight sun. Exquisite winter solitude and untouched scenery await adventurous travelers who explore by skis, snowshoes, dogsleds, or snowmobiles. The annual life cycle of caribou (the Fortymile and White Mountains herds) unfolds dramatically here during summer calving in the high alpine tundra and later during migration to winter habitat in black spruce boreal forests. Dall sheep, uncommon in interior Alaska, may be seen year-round. Visitors may also spot raptors, upland birds, moose, fox, and bears along the Birch Creek Wild and Scenic River or the unforgettable Pinnell Mountain National Recreation Trail. The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act designated the Steese National Conservation Area in 1980. Today, the area is part of the Bureau of Land Management’s National Landscape Conservation System (also known as National Conservation Lands)." Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area"Less than 20 miles from the celebrated Las Vegas Strip in Nevada, the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area showcases some of the best examples of what makes the southern Mojave Desert so spectacular. The area, named for its vivid, “rusted” red sandstone outcrops, offers visitors nearly 200,000 acres in which to experience unique sandstone escarpments, thickets of Joshua trees, beautiful desert flowers, the beloved desert tortoise, and evidence left by native peoples, such as roasting pits, petroglyphs, and pictographs. About a million people visit this stunning Nevada landscape each year to enjoy the 13-mile scenic drive; more than 30 miles of trails; excellent rock climbing, biking, and equestrian opportunities; and a vibrant visitor center. Congress designated Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area in 1990 as Nevada’s first National Conservation Area (the seventh to be designated nationally). Today, the area is part of the Bureau of Land Management’s National Landscape Conservation System (also known as National Conservation Lands)." Bruneau Wild and Scenic River"The Bruneau Wild and Scenic River flows north through the deep, rocky canyons of southwestern Idaho’s Bruneau-Jarbidge Rivers Wilderness Area. The West Fork of the Bruneau joins the Jarbidge River to form the main Bruneau River—a unique web of remote and rugged waterways. From placid pools to turbulent whitewater, from vertical cliffs to steep, grassy slopes, the rivers and their canyons challenge visitors with the extraordinary. Here, one can experience unsurpassed solitude and beauty, or discover the thrill of an unrivaled rafting adventure along the ever-changing rapids. Visitors may glimpse elusive California bighorn sheep climbing the canyon walls. Pronghorn, deer, elk, sage-grouse, and chukar all thrive in the sagebrush habitat, while the water is home to river otters, beaver, and redband trout. The rare wildflower Bruneau River phlox is a river canyon beauty that is found nowhere else. Twelve million years ago volcanism in the Bruneau-Jarbidge area formed an oval basin 60 miles long and 30 miles wide. Multiple lava flows and explosive eruptions occurred as the Earth’s crust slowly migrated and melted over an intense hotspot. About two million years ago, rivers slowly began to carve out the extraordinary canyons visible today, brilliantly showcasing pages in Earth history. Nearly 40 floatable miles of the Bruneau River and portions of the West Fork Bruneau River and Jarbidge River were designated as wild and scenic rivers in March 2009. The same designation created the Bruneau-Jarbidge Rivers Wilderness Area from the surrounding uplands. Today, this 90,000-acre area and the wild and scenic river segments are managed as part of the Bureau of Land Management’s National Landscape Conservation System (also known as National Conservation Lands)." Steens Mountain Cooperative Management and Protection Area"In southeastern Oregon’s high desert is the extraordinary landscape of the Steens Mountain Cooperative Management and Protection Area. Characterized by deep, glaciercarved gorges, vast wilderness, and wild rivers, the area provides habitat for a rich diversity of animal and plant life. The wildflower Steens Mountain paintbrush is found nowhere else in the world. Within this protected area is the Steens Mountain Wilderness, more than 170,000 acres of some of Oregon’s wildest and remotest lands. Visitors traveling the 52-mile Steens Mountain Backcountry Byway are treated to spectacular overlooks of four immense, U-shaped gorges. Carved by glaciers during the Ice Age, they help form the 30-mile fault-block that is Steens Mountain. Rising a mile above the desert, Steens is the largest fault-block mountain in the northern Great Basin. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy year-round recreation opportunities, including hiking, hunting, fishing, and camping. Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are winter favorites. At the Kiger Wild Horse Viewing Area, visitors may glimpse descendants of Spanish Mustangs in the wild. Congress protected the area in 2000 through the Steens Mountain Cooperative Management and Protection Act. Today, approximately 428,000 acres of public lands, including the wilderness area, are managed by the Bureau of Land Management as part of the National Landscape Conservation System (also known as National Conservation Lands)." Mojave Trails National Monument"Spanning 1.6 million acres, the Mojave Trails National Monument comprises a stunning mosaic of rugged mountain ranges, ancient lava flows and fossil beds, and spectacular sand dunes. Rare plants and many native animal species call this timeless landscape home. The monument also contains irreplaceable historical resources, such as World War II training camps and the longest-remaining undeveloped stretch of the iconic Route 66. A critical travel corridor for millennia, the Mojave Trails area links the Pacific coast to the deserts of the Southwest and beyond. The Mojave Indian Trail is the earliest known route through the area. Native Americans used this route for thousands of years, and early Spanish explorers and traders followed its course as well. The Mojave Trails National Monument is part of the Bureau of Land Management’s National Conservation Lands and preserves cultural, ecological, and historical legacies for the benefit of present and future generations."
