Pinnacles National Monument
Management
 

We are continuing to work on the development of a new General Management Plan for Pinnacles National Monument. This is your chance to be involved in deciding how your park will be managed for the next 15-20 years.

A General Management Plan (GMP) is a long-range plan that identifies the desired conditions for natural and cultural resources and visitor experiences. 

The Foundation Planning has been completed. This phase documented why the monument was established and identified what is significant about the park. After listening to considerable public input, we have created 4 alternative management options. These alternatives are now available for public review and comment.

Visit our Park Planning page for more information about the planning process and find out how to participate.

Did You Know?
The night sky is vital to many plants and animals that call Pinnacles home and it holds many meanings for many cultures. An unpolluted night sky is especially valuable to humans wishing to experience natural darkness, shooting stars, or the Milky Way.
