Washington County is one of the most scenic areas in the West. The beautiful open spaces and scenic vistas make Washington County a desirable place to visit and call home. Our region is home to many endangered and threatened animals and plants including the Mojave desert tortoise, the southwest willow flycatcher,and the bearclaw poppy.

Washington County is home to two National Conservation Areas, Beaver Dam Wash NCA and Red Cliffs NCA. . These areas are part of the National Conservation Lands System, which contains some of the West’s most scenic landscapes. National Conservation Lands are some of the last wild places in the West. BLM is currently engaged in Resource Management Planning for these areas. Join CDF in assuring that these areas are managed with conservation for future generations in mind.
