Summary
[edit]DescriptionJupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area in Florida - Poster (18858824315).jpg |
Located on south Florida’s populous Atlantic coast is a small vestige of natural Florida—the 120-acre Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area. Although small, the site’s location at the confluence of the Loxahatchee River and Indian River Lagoon—just one-quarter mile from the Atlantic Ocean—provides for a wealth of natural diversity and has been of strategic importance for human activity for more than 5,000 years. The site is widely known for its namesake lighthouse constructed in 1860, but beyond the lighthouse, the site houses unique military history and evidence of human occupation dating back to 3,000 B.C. More remarkable still, the site encompasses several rare and sensitive natural plant communities, providing habitat for more than 25 special status species. Visitors to the area can tour the historic Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse, experience native coastal and upland habitats, watch for manatees, or engage in one of a multitude of interpretive and educational programs. Congress designated the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area on May 8, 2008. Acre -for -acre, the site is among the Bureau of Land Management’s most diverse National Conservation Lands. The vintage posters will be available at BLM state offices in both postcard and poster formats within the next few weeks. Requests for paper posters can also be sent to asmall@blm.gov. Please include the word POSTER in the subject line and provide your name, mailing address, and the number and type of poster. Requests are limited to five posters per recipient. 6/17 |
