It is the general policy of the BLM that undeveloped Federal Lands under its administration are available to the public
for camping and general recreation, with the following provisions:
• Camping is limited to 14 days within a 30-mile radius in a 28 day period
• Pack out what you pack in
• Avoid camping within 200 ft. of any water source
• Do not leave campfires unattended
• Camp at previously used sites, if possible.
• Dispose of human waste properly. The use of portable toilets is highly recommended. If no portable toilet is available,
solid body waste and urine should be buried in a hole six to twelve inches deep. The disposal site should
be located well away from streams, campsite, and other use areas. Toilet paper should be placed in a small plastic
bag and put into your camp trash bag.
• Pack out your trash (and a little extra). Do not leave or bury trash at campsites.
• Firepans or stoves are recommended when camping on BLM land.
• Avoid building new fire rings. Unnecessary fire rings scar the natural beauty of sites and reduce the amount of space
available for sleeping and cooking areas.
• Use only dead and down wood for campfires. Bringing your own firewood is the best policy to practice.
• Do not put cans, bottles, or aluminum foil into a fire ring.
• Burn campfire logs to ashes, then douse with water. Do not smother a campfire with soil, as this will make it difficult
for the next visitor to use the same fire ring.
