If the suit was dropped, the hopefully things are being worked out. It could be good, or it could be bad.

It just really gets to me though... two years ago when this all started happening I was down on the Swell driving on a few of the main access trails and came across so many signs claiming that the area was wilderness. I looked around the sign and what did I see? A road that has been there longer than the people who decided to close it. :mad2:

"USA-ALL's lawsuit claimed that the county and state, in agreeing to the BLM's closures, "wrongly failed" to assert ownership to so-called "RS 2477 highways" in the San Rafael Swell.

RS 2477 is a 19th-century law that granted states and counties the right to construct roads across federal lands. The law was repealed in 1976, but roads created up to that time were valid.

The problem, though, is that there was no inventory of such routes, so today there is considerable dispute over what constitutes an RS 2477 road"
