Update on Moab - BLM to Close 437 Miles of Trails
From the Blue Ribbon Coalition.
December 22, 2023 – BRC took their challenge to the federal government’s arbitrary and illegal closure of over 300 miles of trails near Moab, UT, to federal district court for the District of Utah. The federal court filing follows a ruling by the Interior Board of Land Appeals to deny a stay of the closures earlier this month. Now it will be up to a Utah federal judge to decide whether the trails will remain closed while the litigation is pending, or whether they will be open and available to the hundreds of thousands of Jeepers, mountain bikers, dirt bike riders, and others who have enjoyed them for decades.
Areas and trails such as, Hey Joe Canyon, Ten Mile Canyon, Hell Roaring Canyon, Golden Spike, Gold Bar Rim, Rusty Nail, Day Canyon Point, Dead Man Point, Bull Canyon, 3D/Mashed Potatoes Jeep trails, Dead Cow and Tubes motorcycle trails are being proposed for closure. Parts of Where Eagles Dare, Buttes and Towers, Wipe Out Hill, and 7 Mile Rim also will be potentially closed to OHV use.

WHO ARE WE
The Arizona 4 Wheel Drive Association (A4WDA), is a not for profit organization dedicated to the responsible family four wheeling and motorized outdoor recreation. The association was incorporated in 1965, formerly the Arizona State Association of 4 Wheel Drive Clubs (ASA4WDC). We have updated our name to make it easier to remember and shorter.
Our mission is to promote a more responsible attitude towards the use of motorized vehicles on public lands. To encourage state and federal land management agencies to develop and maintain roads and trails for outdoor motorized recreation.
The A4WDA is made up of full size vehicle "Member Clubs" in the state of Arizona. The clubs are located in all parts of our state with the greatest concentration in the greater Phoenix area, also in the southern part of the state in Tucson and Sierra Vista. The northern part of state has clubs in Bullhead City and Parker.
The A4WDA member clubs work with the local forest service districts and Game and Fish on adopt-a-trails and adopt-a-ranches throughout the state.
The A4WDA participates in planning process and trail maintenance with local and federal land managers.
