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
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!
Below is Total Escape's simplified version for finding BLM information. Listed are direct contacts to regional district office and the rural, field offices. Links and email addresses are provided, but be warned, these may change at any time.
