The Medford District, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is looking for volunteers to participate in the 16th annual National Public Lands Day. In what has become the largest volunteer hands-on effort of its kind in the country, participants will come together to lend a hand to the very lands they use to hike, bike, climb, fish, swim, explore, picnic, or just plain relax.
The Medford District is establishing temporary rules to restrict certain activities and uses at Upper and Lower Table Rocks (Table Rocks) starting March 26, 2014. The temporary rules affect approximately 2,325 acres of BLM-administered lands within the Table Rocks Management Area, which is located between Modoc Road, Antioch Road, Highway 234, and the Rogue River. The restrictions stem from recent land acquisitions to protect sensitive resources on the Table Rocks.
The Medford District Bureau of Land Management will be closing the Hyatt Lake Recreation Complex main campground to camping as well as closing the restrooms and fish cleaning station beginning Sunday, September 30, 2012 at 3p.m. However, the main boat dock within the recreation complex will remain open for use through the fishing season and will close on November 1, 2012. A portable toilet will be available for use near the main boat ramp and dock. Day use fees still apply. Dry camping within the main campground will be prohibited but Wildcat Campground on Hyatt Lake will remain open until vehicle access is prevented by snow.
