NOTE: Trail locations are conceptual and will be refined through the NEPA and design process. As a trail user, please let the local ranger district know what you would like to see in this area.
The Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest, Hahns Peak-Bears Ear Ranger District, has prepared a Notice of Proposed Action (NOPA) for the Buffalo Pass Trails Project. The purpose of the Buffalo Pass Trails Project is to provide for trail-based recreation needs by developing and managing a sustainable, designated trail system in the Buffalo Pass area. The project would also address recreational impacts in the area including illegal trail building and use, and cross-country travel. Planning for the project has been funded by the 2A Accommodations Tax Trails Committee.
Now it’s YOUR chance to comment on the project. The comment period ends May 19th.
