LAS VEGAS - Do you have questions about the newly designated Gold Butte National Monument? The Bureau of Land Management Southern Nevada District Office will host a Gold Butte National Monument Public Information Forum on May 25 in North Las Vegas. The public information forum is from 6 to 8 p.m. in the North Las Vegas City Council Chambers, 2250 Las Vegas Boulevard North, North Las Vegas, Nevada, 89030. The event is open to the public.
The purpose of the forum is to provide information to the public about the newly designated Gold Butte National Monument. A short presentation from BLM will be followed by a question and answer period.
Gold Butte National Monument covers nearly 300,000 acres of remote and rugged desert landscape in southeastern Nevada, where dramatically chiseled red sandstone, twisting canyons, and tree-clad mountains punctuate desolate stretches of the Mojave Desert. The brightly hued sandstone provides a stunning canvas for the area’s famously beautiful rock art, and the desert provides critical habitat.
