Description

On Earth Day 2016, the Oregon/Washington Bureau of Land Management released a new vintage-style poster and postcards of Steens Mountain! The posters and postcards are available to the public at no cost from all BLM offices and public rooms throughout Oregon and Washington. "An area as special as southeast Oregon’s Steens Mountain deserves an equally special commemoration like this beautiful vintage poster. The Steens Mountain and its high desert surroundings is one of the crown jewels of Oregon wildlands. Conservation efforts here are an example of successful cooperative conservation efforts.” said acting Oregon/Washington BLM State Director Jamie Connell. The United States Congress designated the Steens Mountain Wilderness in 2000 and it now has over 170,200 acres. All of this wilderness is located in Oregon and is managed by the Bureau of Land Management.

“The high Steens landscape reveals the dramatic effects of contrasting geologic forces -- tectonic uplift and glaciation. The vintage Steens poster depicts the massive backdrop that compels us to play an active part in something much bigger than ourselves,” said Jerry Magee, Oregon/Washington BLM State Wilderness Lead.

The vintage poster and postcard series is being produced to raise awareness and encourage greater stewardship of our National Conservation Lands.

Since 2014, the BLM has published many vintage posters. All the posters can be viewed at:
