BLM-CO Expanding Recreational Opportunities on Colorado's Public Lands

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Colorado's 8. 3 million acres of public lands, along with 27 million acres of mineral estate, are concentrated primarily in the western portion of the State.

The lands range from alpine tundra, colorful canyons, and mesas in the southwest, to rolling

sage-covered hills in the northwest.

These public lands play a vital role in providing open space and contribute to Colorado's quality of life.

The public lands and resources administered by the BLM are among Colorado's greatest assets, benefitting local communities and our nation.

Every year, BLM-managed public lands support thousands of jobs in Colorado and draw millions of visitors.

Colorado's public lands support diverse lifestyles and livelihoods on healthy and working landscapes in Colorado's backyard.

BLM Colorado's National Conservation Lands encompass approximately one million acres, or one-eighth of all BLM land in the state.In addition, BLM Colorado manages the following:
1) 3 national conservation areas; 2) 53 wilderness study areas; 3) 5 wilderness areas; 4) 1 national historic trail; 5) 1 national scenic trail, and; 6) 2 national monuments.BLM Colorado's recreation program benefits from the vibrant network of volunteers and partners.

In particular, our recreation program is bolstered by the strength of the BLM's partnerships with national, regional, and local organizations that share our goals of providing sustainable recreation opportunities and economic benefits to communities.

Recreation-related activities contribute more than $543 million to Colorado's economy and supports more than 4,625 jobs.

BLM Colorado offers a variety of motorized recreation opportunities from the OHV play areas in Flat Top-Peach Valley and Grand Valley, to extreme rock crawling at Wolford Mountain Recreation Area or Independence Trail in the Gold Belt Recreation Area.

BLM Colorado's Recreation program benefits the vibrant network of recreationists and partners.

The vision of this strategy is to build on the strength of the BLM's partnerships with national, regional, and local organizations who share our goals of providing sustainable recreation opportunities and lasting economic benefits to communities.

BLM Colorado is seeking recreation partnerships to enhance visitors' experiences and provide quality recreation opportunities.

To that end, the BLM is looking for a cooperator/partner who will work to help promote BLM's multiple use mission and responsible use of motorized vehicles through shared conservation of public lands.
