On Thursday, Dec. 11, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is releasing the next series of its popular vintage poster collection and it includes a poster of the San Juan Islands National Monument (SJINM). The SJINM encompasses about 1,000 acres of land spread across rocks and islands managed by BLM. The vintage-style drawing featured on the poster is of Patos Island and its lighthouse, which is a dominant feature of the area. Other similarly styled posters feature the Oregon National Historic Trail in Wyoming and the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument in New Mexico. There will be an official unveiling of the three posters on Thursday Dec. 11 at the BLM Oregon/Washington State Office at 1220 S.W. 3rd Ave., Portland OR 97204. All are welcome and those who are interested in attending the poster unveiling should contact Jeff Clark at (503) 808-6028.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land located primarily in 12 western states, including Alaska, on behalf of the American people. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. Our mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
