I am guessing that not a lot of people are aware of B.L.M. and what they do, so all things considered, I thought that I should make a thread about this organization and see if anyone else is familiar with them or uses their services.
B.L.M. manages the wildlands that make up much of the country outside of cities and towns and lands not privately owned. When you go for road trips and you see those dirt roads closed off with tags or signs nearby those are mostly lands managed by B.L.M.
My dad often would apply for permits and the B.L.M. people would give him keys to open the gates to some of these rough properties and then go explore them for historical artifacts and have fun with his vehicles. Some of these properties contain secret bases and untouched locations of archaeological interest. Some of the locations are where the electricians roads run through, very rough roads.
My grandpa was a lookout for B.L.M. and the coast guard in the Pacific Northwest for half his life, before that he worked on B.L.M. lands as a park ranger and firefighter through the 1940s and the 1960s. There's a lot of land out there controlled by B.L.M. all across the country.
So, if you ever want to take your wife and kids camping and want to avoid the crowd or common parks, give B.L.M. a call and apply for a permit.
