Just got this from some rock climbing organizations. They're having trouble with people shutting down access to their areas to, perhaps an ally? Anyways They're doing a clean up with other people just thought I'd post it for anyone that is interested. As usual I don't know if my schedule will accomidate my attendence or not, but it would be nice to get some wheeling guys down there. Here's the e-mail I got:
BLM officer and PRT graduate Britta [Nelson] Laub has] received confirmation that the Secretary of Interior, Gale Norton, will be attending the Fivemile Pass National
Public Lands Day Event, in conjunction with the American Frontiers Trek, A
Public Lands Journey. BLM Fire Prevention Team, Leave No Trace! and
possibly HawkWatch will be on site for the duration of the event. If you
give me your FAX number, I'd be happy to FAX a map.

NATIONAL PUBLIC LANDS DAY - FIVEMILE PASS, UTAH
THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO GET INVOLVED, GAIN TRAIL PATROL HOURS, MEET YOUR LOCAL BLM MANAGERS AND WORK WITH OTHERS WHO ENJOY THE AREA.
Join the Salt Lake Field Office, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in a work
day event to celebrate National Public Lands Day on Saturday, September 28,
2002 at Fivemile Pass, Utah.
The event will begin at 8:00 a.m. and conclude at noon. Fivemile Pass is a popular OHV and dispersed use recreation area located on the southern end of the Oquirrh Mountains in Utah and Tooele Counties.
The event will consist of many local user groups, clubs, and BLM employees
1. cleaning up litter in the area,
2. constructing and installing bulletin boards, and
3. signing routes.
To
reach Fivemile Pass, travel south on I-15, take the first Lehi exit (exit
number 285), turn right onto Highway 73. Follow Highway 73 west.
(Fivemile Pass is approximately 21 miles west of Lehi). Travel to the
Utah/Tooele county line, and turn left (south) off of the highway to the
event headquarters (you will see several shade ramadas on site). Find the
BLM sign-in/information booth to sign up as a volunteer.
Please indicate which project you would prefer to assist with (1-3, above). Bring gloves, sunscreen, water and closed toe shoes. For more information, contact
Britta Laub at (801) 977-4389.
