Birch Creek Public Lands Celebration

October Stewardship/Recreational Opportunity will be at Birch Creek near the historic ranch site. We'll talk about the site, the history, and how we can help preserve this special place in our public lands. Not familiar with Birch Creek? Take a look:

 "The ranch was founded in 1900 and purchased by the BLM in 1988 in order to preserve the remarkable site along the wild and scenic Owyhee River. An excerpt from a BLM website on the history of the ranch describes the scenery: Its green fields contrast strongly with the sun-drenched cream- and chocolate-colored formations and the red and black volcanic rocks that soar up from the edges of its narrow meadows. Prepare yourself for an astonishing, world-class beauty that changes through the day."
