Fun fact: my first job was working @BLMCCSC as a high school intern. Even though I didn't stick with environmental science, I'm excited to be able to celebrate their 25th birthday with them in person! #25YearsofCCSC

Known as a “clearwater” river, @BLMAlaska's Gulkana Wild and Scenic River does not contain suspended glacial sediments that make many northern rivers appear milky or muddy. The river offers class I-IV rapids and spectacular views of the Wrangell Mountains. #ArmchairAdventure

Today's #ArmchairAdventure visits @BLMOregon-managed Yaquina Head where you can view migrating whales, marine mammals and seabirds. Here, intertidal plant and animal species have each developed special adaptations to deal with the harsh ever-changing conditions of their home.

Porcupines are gentle but prickly. Don't try to 🤗 one!🚫 They are found across the state but 1st evolved in South America. They entered North America 3 million years ago when the 2 continents collided. Porcupines truly show how #CreaturesConnectUs! #NationalWildlifeWeek 📷BLM

Can you spot the 🐸? Wood frogs survive the winter by freezing solid 🥶. This is one of the reasons wood frogs are the only Amphibian found above the #ArcticCircle. What would you do after waking up from a winter-long slumber💤? #CreaturesConnectUs #NationalWildlifeWeek 📷 (UWP)

#CreaturesConnectUs in Alaska. #DYK moose can give birth to twins? This is thought to occur if food is plentiful. 🌿 ⚠️Don't get too close to the cuteness😍 Mother moose can be aggressive, remember to give them plenty of space! #NationalWildlifeWeek #WildWednesday 📷BLM
