How will existing recreation uses within the monument be affected?
Key management goals for the monument include providing recreation opportunities and visitor services for people to experience and enjoy the biological resources and scenic values of the monument. The management plan will include provisions to continue recreational use of the area. Until the completion of the management plan, the area will be managed in a manner substantially consistent with current management. Most existing recreation uses will continue. Some adjustments to recreation activities may be necessary in order to provide protection for the endangered Peninsular bighorn sheep. Such adjustments would be necessary regardless of monument designation.
