Attention New Mexico Recreationists!

As you know, the Forest Service (FS) published a new rule governing OHVs and other motor vehicle use on National Forests and Grasslands. Under the new rules, forests that do not already restrict OHV travel to "designated roads-and-trails" must do so, and OHVs must remain on designated roads and trails systems while on the National Forest.

As part of the ongoing implementation of the Travel Management Rule, the Cibola National Forest is hosting two Public Workshops addressing Travel Management on the Sandia Ranger District. Workshop participants will build upon information gathered from two previous workshops, the Forest Service Interdisciplinary Team and from the Sandia Travel Management Work Group.

Interested citizens do not need to have attended previous workshops in order to participate. Workshop participants will review and comment on preliminary route designations developed by the Sandia Travel Work Group. Participants will also have an opportunity to add routes that they would like to see considered for inclusion in a motorized system for the Sandia Ranger District.
