Red alert! The draft EA for the Labyrinth Rims / Gemini Bridges travel plan in Moab has just been published, kicking off a 30 day comment period which ends https://www.blm.gov/press-release/blm-announces-public-meeting-and-comment-period-labyrinth-rimsgemini-bridges-draft
This is probably the most important travel management plan of the decade, and will decide the fate of most of Moab's most famous Jeep trails. It is crucial that you comment opposing alternatives B and C and supporting alternatives D or A, and asking the BLM to keep all of the routes mentioned below open instead of closing them.

As expected, the "natural resources" alternative B was modified to close even more trails as requested by Grand County, and would now close all of the Hey Joe Canyon, Hell Roaring Canyon, Golden Spike, Gold Bar Rim, Rusty Nail, Day Canyon Point, Dead Man Point, Bull Canyon, Ten Mile Canyon, and 3D / Mashed Potatoes Jeep trails, plus the Dead Cow and Tubes motorcycle trails, plus parts of Where Eagles Dare, Buttes and Towers, Wipe Out Hill, and 7 Mile Rim. If this extreme alternative was chosen (unlikely but possible) it would utterly eviscerate the Easter Jeep Safari trail network and close at least portions of most of the famous named trails featured in guidebooks and motorized events.

The so-called "balanced" or "multiple-use" alternative C (the one the BLM almost certainly intends to adopt) appears unchanged since the preliminary alternatives release a year ago, and would close 2/3 of Ten Mile Canyon, half of Hell Roaring Canyon, all of Mineral Canyon, one of the overlooks on Deadman Point, part of the Buttes and Towers safari trail, the 7-Up trail, and many other lesser known routes.

Alternative D is the "pro-motorized" and has the least amount of closures, but still closes part of the Buttes and Towers safari trail. It could be acceptable to motorized users if they eliminated that closure.

Alternative A, the no-action alternative, is of course the best but the BLM never picks that one and always picks one of the action alternatives. So D is the only real option for motorized users to support.

There are PDF maps on the BLM's website, and I will be working on creating and updated interactive ArcGIS map as soon as I can get the updated GIS data from the BLM. Except to hear a lot more about this from us and other motorized groups like the Blue Ribbon Coalition in the coming weeks.

“It is crucial that you comment opposing alternatives B and C and supporting alternatives D or A, and asking the BLM to keep all of the routes mentioned below open instead of closing them.”

Since when are regulatory matters decided in a Facebook poll? Or am I misunderstanding the implied action here?

Camping weather soon... like Saturday and the next three days. Bring on the cool weather! 9500 feet base camp sounds nice.

I've been surprised at how not-dead my grass manages to remain even when I don't water it.

Is it brown and spotty? Yes. Does it still come back in the spring monsoons? So far yes.

Sounds like you have a better suited grass to our environment here.
