GREEN RIVER -- Rather than close roads and access, a proposed draft travel plan for the Flaming Gorge reservoir in southwest Wyoming will actually designate more motorized routes for the popular recreation area, Ashley National Forest officials contend. The new plan will update the existing motorized travel plan last revised in 1995, officials said during a public meeting in Green River on Tuesday night. |

JACKSON, Wyo. Bridger-Teton National Forest officials have approved a plan that limits off-road motorized vehicles to designated trails and roads on the western Wyoming forest. The use of motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles in the forest around Jackson Hole had largely been unregulated before the agency announced Tuesday that it had issued a final decision on the plan. Wilderness was one of the few exceptions. The final plan eliminates unrestricted use and designates 392 miles of roads and 88 miles of trails where motorized use is allowed. While the plan keeps many trails popular with motorized vehicle users, it does impose more seasonal limits to protect wildlife and sensitive soils during certain times of the year. |
