Waddy’s Corral is Ready for Parking

The tractor work is done and the fencing is going up. This huge project has been done on time for another busy summer on Sand Mountain. Desert Roads and Trails (DRATS) did an excellent job managing and fund raising for this project to eliminate the poor parking available near Sand Mountain OHV area. The area developed is over 5 acres and should handle at least 50 trucks and trailers for Side-by-Side unloading and will be the new air down spot for Jeepers.   Located next to the Water Tanks, this area was needed to replace the area between the two tanks for a third tank.

The following agencies and businesses donated funds to make the project a reality:

 

Hurricane City                    $150,000

State Parks OHV                $100,000

UPLA                                    $50,000

Washington County            $50,000

DRATS                                  $47,000

Utah 4Wheel Drive               $10,000

FMCA Jeep Club                    $5,000

Public Donations                    $4,000

Tri-State UTV                         $2,500

Dixie 4 Wheel Drive               $2,000

Mad Moose Rentals              $1,500

Tread Lightly                          $1,500

Thanks also goes to the many attendies to the Winter 4×4 Jamboree which was responsible for the much of the proceeds donated from returns from the event.. We should all be proud of the tremendous support from the local groups to undertake this large of a project and to the BLM for their continued support of our activities to improve the OHV site.
