Please see the 1/31/2019 update at http://www.sageridersmc.com/land-use-issues.html This is moving again, and it's moving fast.

The time for action is now. DOI Press Release -- Interior Department Releases List of Monuments Under Review, Announces First-Ever Formal Public Comment Period for Antiquities Act Monuments...

The Skyline Trail from North Ogden Divide to Willard Basin (Ben Lomond portion of trail) is under seasonal closure until July 16th. The Skyline Trail is open from the Pineview trailhead to North Ogden Divide.

No kidding. See: Federal Register 21 April 2014 EPA Proposed Rules Definition of “Waters of the United States” Under the Clean Water Act http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2014-04-21/pdf/2014-07142.pdf Seems pretty simple... just a definition change. But this would be a huge change that gives...

Here's SUWA's new action alert (in italics) for this proposed project: Dear Friend, Proving that on-the-ground reality plays little role in decision-making when off-road vehicle (ORV) interests are involved, the BLM’s Richfield field office recently proposed opening a long-impassible route...

Is there a sign at the gate saying ATVs are allowed to go past, is there a narrow side-gate to allow ATVs, or are some ATVers just going past the closed gate? If you want to look into it, that gate and area are managed by the Ogden Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest...

Here's the leaked list: ".... Rio Grande del Norte National Monument in New Mexico; First State National Monument in Delaware; Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Monument in Maryland; Charles Young Buffalo Soldiers National Monument in Ohio; and San Juan Islands National...

It also may end up helping SUWA. If you want to show the BLM lands within the proposed GCNM are protected, look at the Moab FO, Price FO, Richfield FO, and Monticello FO Final RMPs. Then look at what the protection was before the RMPs (which is basically the No Action Alternative in the DEIS)...

The the Utah Gazetteer is alright for a general plan, but you'll need the BLM route designation maps to really check things out. All of the area within the Greater Canyonlands boundary that's in the Moab FO is "Limited to Designated Routes" or "Closed." The designated route maps are available...

What a marvelous collection of weasel-words. Of course the "letter" is a different document (they have different filenames or are printed on different pieces of paper). But the fact remains, the "letter" is in support of SUWA's petition, which is the only "Greater Canyonlands" petition /...

To see the routes that SUWA wants closed with this proposal / petition, open http://dev.suwa.org/wp-content/uploads/PetitionWithPhotos_Exhibits_FINAL.pdf and go to Figure 2 on page 7. The routes in red, "Routes Subject to SUWA Petition March 2011", are the ones that would be closed pending...

A few points: The OIA hasn't created the "National Monument proposal", they have ".... signed a letter in support of designating the Greater Canyonlands area as a national monument." The proposal comes from SUWA. See: http://www.suwa.org/issues/greatercanyonlands/ SUWA "made a formal request...

Neither do I. Wait a minute, is it that "Hanky" is spelled "President." .... "Dear Mr. Hanky... ."

SUWA is being dishonest when they use that to support this: "There is another significant aspect to this problem: too frequently, ORV users knowingly violate existing rules that govern ORV use." If you look carefully at the survey questions, raw data, time-of-year the survey was conducted (for...

It's the Midland Trail near the Worm Creek crossing (CTNF, Montpelier RD). Not sure about the boiler history.

Between North Ogden Pass and Willard Basin there's a seasonal closure for motorcycles. It's open to motorcycles from July 16th to November 14th. From Pineview to North Ogden Pass there's no seasonal closure.

Just save up some money and buy a new Ossa Explorer: NEW OSSA EXPLORER http://www.trialmag.net/trialmag/article/5749/NEW+OSSA+EXPLORER The 2012 OSSA Explorer http://www.lewisportusa.com/ossa_explorer.htm EXPLORERS TO BE ARRIVING (in US) BY EARLY JUNE...

For trail riding or trials events on public lands; State, BLM, FS, ... you'll also need to get a spark arrestor.

Trials bikes typically run 4 to 4.5 psi in the rear (tubeless radial) and 5 to 6.5 psi in the front (tubed bias ply). That can vary with conditions, tire brand, etc. and rear pressure is sometimes run as low as 2.5 psi, but almost never over 5 psi. Running 5 psi in the rear would be for trail...

BINGO. We have a winner.
