"What this message is really about is a cabin I found
> on the Black Eagle Mine Road in the eastern part of the
> Joshua Tree area. It is about 2 miles outside of the
> eastern park boundary and is on BLM land. The cabin
> is not in the greatest shape, but clearly lots of people
> have stayed here in the past and it reminded me a lot of
> the Death Valley area adopted cabins.
> The problem is that the BLM has initiated trespass
> proceedings (see the notice) and threatens to destroy the
> cabin after Feb 28, 2008.
> I know you are mainly interested in the Death Valley area,
> but maybe you have some friends interested in adopting
> cabins in this area who might be interested in appealing
> to the BLM to adopt this cabin. I don't even know if that
> is possible under the circumstances. The letterhead on
> the notice shows the address of the Palm Springs-South
> Coast BLM Field Office.
> > Hope you or one of your friends may find this of interest."
