designated motorized road or motorized
trail.
Management zone—The three
administrative designations (Front
Country, Rustic, and Wilderness) into
which the NCA, associated wilderness,
and contiguous lands have been divided
for management purposes as depicted
on the Visitor Use Management Zones
Map (RMP, map 2–13). Each
management zone has a unique set of
objectives and management decisions as
described below.
• Front country zone—A management
zone encompassing those lands that are
intended to be the focal point for
visitation where visitor
accommodations would be made to
provide primary interpretation,
overlooks, trails, and associated
facilities necessary to highlight
resources and features of the NCA.
• Rustic zone—Those lands that are
intended to provide an undeveloped,
primitive, and self-directed visitor
experience while accommodating
motorized and mechanized access on
designated routes, and where facilities
are rare and provided only where
essential for resource protection.
• Wilderness zone—Those lands that
are intended to provide an
undeveloped, primitive, and selfdirected visitor experience without
motorized or mechanized access and
where facilities are nonexistent.
Minimal vegetation damage—rushing
by foot or vehicle tires or the physical
removal with hand tools of herbaceous
vegetation or woody vegetation less than
18 inches tall necessary for the parking
of one or more motorized vehicles,
establishment of a campsite, or
providing for a safe campfire. The
physical removal or damage of woody
vegetation taller than 18 inches is
considered more than minimal damage.
Motorized equipment—Any machine
that uses or is activated by a motor,
engine, or other non-living power
source.
Motorized vehicle—Any vehicle that
is self-propelled by a non-living power
source, including electric power, but not
operated upon rails or upon water.
Rock climbing—Ascending or
descending a rock face using rope and
devices such as pitons, bolts, chocks,
camming devices and webbing.
Surface protecting device—A device
to prevent campfires from coming into
direct contact with the ground surface,
such as an elevated platform, open grill,
fire blanket, or fire pan for the purpose
of preventing fire scars on the surface of
the Black Rock Desert playa.
Vehicle—Every device in, upon, or by
which a person or property is or may be
transported or drawn on land, except

devices used exclusively upon
stationary rails or track.
Water hole—Any source of drinking
water for livestock, wildlife, wild
horses, and burros including but not
limited to wildlife guzzlers, stock tanks,
watering troughs, natural springs, and
seeps.
