Help Us Save 199 Miles of Moab Trails
The BLM is expected to release their Moab Labyrinth Canyon Travel Management Plan by September 30, and we are extremely concerned their plan is going to mirror other recent Federal government actions. We’re working closely with BlueRibbon Coalition to help prepare for legal appeals, but We Can’t Do It Without You.
The most common reasons for closure are that a trail is a duplicate, not being used, or is actively being reclaimed. It’s vital to prepare a good legal strategy to know details about every trail, including Trail Conditions, GPX tracks, Photos, and Why the Trail is Important, and we must gather this information BEFORE the closure takes effect.
Thanks to Patrick McKay with Colorado Offroad Trail Defenders, we’ve identified 199 miles of that need a status update.
What we need your help with is Running These Trails. Download the free tracks from UtahPLA.com (We have both GPX and KML versions), load them into your navigation system, and go run the trails. We need you to record your track on the trail and report the Trail Using the UPLA form. Photos tell the story of a thousand words, so if you can submit a few pics that will really help.
Time is limited, so we hope that everyone going to Moab in the next month will help us collect data. Don’t worry about duplicates either, the more reports on the same trail add to our story.
