Forest Service Over-Snow Vehicle Rule Restricts Snowmobile Access: Tell the Agency to Rescind 36 CFR Part 212 Subpart C

Jul 2, 2026

Snowmobilers rode National Forests for decades until Subpart C turned winter access into a paperwork permission system where riding outside lines on a map is prohibited. Congress never ordered this rule, and the agency already has full authority to close areas where actual damage occurs. Sign BRC’s action alert telling the Forest Service to rescind Subpart C and restore common-sense winter access.

Rio Grande National Forest Draft EIS Will Decide Over-Snow Vehicle Access on 1.84M Acres

Jul 2, 2026

The Rio Grande National Forest is deciding where snowmobiles can ride across 1.84 million acres in southern Colorado, and the lines drawn now will be permanent. BRC supports Alternative 3 with key route additions from Alternative 4, but the draft plan contains wilderness buffer zones, arbitrary snow depth rules, and a contradictory preferred alternative that need fixing. Submit your comment before July 29 and tell the Forest Service to keep this terrain open.

Trail Canyon Travel Management Plan Could Close Off-Road Trails Near Kanab

Jun 22, 2026

The BLM’s Trail Canyon Travel Management Plan near Kanab will decide the future of 473 miles of OHV routes in Kane County, and the most restrictive option closes nearly a third of the network. BRC supports a variation of Alternative D, which keeps 95% of trails open. Submit your comment to the BLM before July 22 and tell them motorized access must stay open.

Dragon Bravo Fire Recovery Could Restore Kaibab Plateau Access

Jun 18, 2026

After the 2025 fires that burned nearly 150,000 acres near the North Rim, hazardous trees and fire damage continue to block access across the Kaibab Plateau. The Forest Service is proposing to remove the danger and protect roads and trails from future closures. Back the plan by submitting your comment to the Forest Service before June 20.

Utah High Desert Trail Project: 810 Miles for OHV Access

Jun 16, 2026

The BLM’s High Desert Trail project would formally designate an 810-mile route across western Utah, using roads and trails already open to the public today. BRC supports the designation and the preferred Alternative B, the longer, more scenic route that brings the most economic benefit. Submit a comment by June 16 backing Alternative B and tell the BLM to choose it.

Interior Reviews Wilderness Study Areas Locking Up Public Land

Jun 13, 2026

The Department of the Interior just opened a nationwide review of Wilderness Study Areas, the same outdated policy that has locked millions of acres in wilderness-style limbo for decades without a vote from Congress. BRC petitioned for this reform months ago, and now your voice can push it across the line. Submit a comment to the Interior Department supporting WSA reform before the August 14, 2026 deadline.

Outdoor Americans with Disabilities Act Introduced in the House of Representatives

Jun 12, 2026

BRC worked directly with Congressional offices to shape and advance the Outdoor ADA, now introduced in both chambers. Tell your members of Congress why this legislation matters.

Roadless Rule, Road break stops fire in forest

H.R. 7695 and S. 140 Would Permanently Repeal Roadless Rule

Jun 10, 2026

The 2001 Roadless Rule locked up 58.5 million acres of National Forest land, blocking road maintenance, wildfire mitigation, and reasonable access for 25 years. BRC supports H.R. 7695 and S. 140, two bills that would repeal the rule and return management decisions to local forest managers. Contact your members of Congress and ask them to support both bills.
