This polygon feature class depicts the corridor boundaries for the National Scenic and Historic Trails (NSHT) as part of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) National Land Conservation System (NLCS). The NSHT corridor is the official area that is managed to protect the purposes for which the trails were established. The three trail system's within Arizona BLM's NLCS NSHT dataset are the Arizona National Scenic Trail, the Old Spanish National Historic Trail, and the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail. The Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail corridor portion of the nsht_corr_poly featureclass was digitized for the Travel Management Planning (TMP) program lead at the BLM Arizona State Office. Creation of this trail corridor is believed to have occurred in December of 2010, originating from georeferenced maps that were acquired from available documentation (CMP_NPS Report).
In June 2000, the BLM responded to growing concern over the loss of open space by creating the NLCS. The NLCS brings into a single system some of the BLM's premier designations. By putting these lands into an organized system, the BLM hopes to increase public awareness of these areas' scientific, cultural, educational, ecological and other values. The BLM's management of all public lands included data within the NLCS is guided by the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA). FLPMA ensures that many of BLM's traditional activities such as grazing and hunting, continue on the lands within the NLCS, provided these activities are consistent with the overall purpose of the area.
Arizona is home to many magnificent National Conservation Lands. From the prolific cultural history of the Agua Fria National Monument, the unique ecological transition zones of the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument, the Ironwood Forest National Monument’s ancient trees, the Sonoran Desert Monument’s rich biological diversity, to the geologic treasures of the Vermillion Cliffs National monument, the Bureau of Land Management's (BLM's) Arizona’s national monuments are landscapes all truly spectacular.
