BLM (Bureau of Land Management)
Federally managed public lands BLM, in California are broken down into three different districts:

  • California Deserts
  • Central California
  • Northern California

    BLM offices California The California Bureau of Land Management calls their stations "field offices", instead of typical forest ranger station.

    You can also find INTER-AGENCY visitors centers around California, where BLM, National Forest and National Park are represented in a convenient one-stop shop location. Maps, books, permits, info, bathrooms, picnic areas, stretch-your-legs rest break kinda place.

    The Eastern Sierra Visitor Center is one such example. Located at a busy highway junction, south of Lone Pine, California in the Eastern Sierra region. US Hwy 395 @ Highway 136. High desert meet mountains - where Death Valley National Park, Inyo National Forest and BLM lands are abundant, and the tallest peak, Mount Whitney, is within view. Well worth the stop!
