 The BLM's final plan establishes management areas to protect recreational uses, including miles of trails for hikers, hunters, anglers, mountain bikers, and equestrians, as well as some of the best non-expert canoeing and kayaking in California. Steve O'Brien, who manages a bicycle shop in Chico, says he has several decades of experience in the region, and he hopes the management plan will keep it in pristine condition. I'm pleased.
