The BLM and the Pacific NW Four Wheel Drive Association teamed up for the 31st consecutive year during Memorial Day weekend to blend outdoor fun with land stewardship at the Christmas Valley Sand Dunes and Lost Forest.
National Public Lands Day (NPLD) is largely supported across the United States as a cornerstone celebration centered around volunteerism, outdoor recreation, access, and environmental stewardship.
In August, volunteers from Backcountry Hunters & Anglers collaborated with the Bureau of Land Management Rawlins Field Office to remove one mile of obsolete fencing from the Sullivan grazing allotment in the Shirley Basin, improving wildlife movement and habitat while recycling over 3,000 pounds of steel fencing, with plans for further removals and ongoing partnerships to benefit public lands and wildlife such as mule deer, elk, pronghorn, and sage-grouse.
Nearly 50 volunteers, partners and riders spent National Public Lands Day turning trail talk into teamwork and community pride into on‑the‑ground stewardship.
Looking to volunteer and give back to public lands? Join BLM Arizona for National Public Lands Day! This year, BLM Arizona will host National Public Lands Day events beginning Sept. 26 and continuing into December.
