BLM Invites Hunters to Celebrate National Public Lands Day at San Joaquin River Gorge

The Bureau of Land Management is hosting a National Public Lands Day event at San Joaquin River Gorge, inviting hunters and outdoor enthusiasts to assist with habitat restoration and litter removal. Participants will work alongside BLM staff to maintain the health and diversity of the area, supporting the agency's mission to sustain public lands for present and future generations. The BLM manages roughly 245 million acres of surface land across 12 western states and oversees 700 million acres of subsurface mineral estate. Volunteers will receive safety briefings and can expect a rewarding day of hands‑on conservation work that benefits both wildlife and fellow hunters.
