South Sand Wash Open OHV Area in Colorado Proposes Additional Recreation Opportunities
Dec 4, 2024
The South Sand Wash Open OHV area in Colorado provides great OHV recreation in the Little Snake Field Office in northwest, Colorado. The area is used for OHV’s, dispersed camping and enduro races. The area is also popular for wildlife viewing – including feral horses.
The proposal includes additional parking and staging areas, signage, restrooms, dumpsters, campsites, picnic tables, pavilion and shade structures. BRC supports the improvements and wants to ensure that designated campsites and recreation areas doesn’t take the place of dispersed camping and recreation long term. The open comment period isn’t to analyze the open OHV area. The analysis is limited to the additional facilities and improvements. The BLM is wanting to develop a recreation area management plan (RAMP) for continued use. Comments are accepted by the BLM through November 18, 2024. Let the BLM know your thoughts on the proposals and the needs for this area.

Why you should submit here, even if you already have elsewhere!
We keep them honest. If everyone only comments through the government/agency site, we have to take their word on how many comments were received. By submitting through BRC, we create an independent record of our community’s response that can’t be buried or under-reported.
We protect your voice. If this fight ends up in court, having our own record of submitted comments means we don’t have to wait a year or more for a government agency to turn over documents. We can move quickly with proof that thousands of you spoke up. We keep you in the loop. When you comment through our site, we can send you updates on what comes next. If you only use the government/agency site, you’re depending on them to tell you what happens next — and they won’t.
Double coverage matters. Even if you’ve already commented through the government/agency site, submitting through ours makes your voice count twice — once in their system, and once in ours. That way they know the OHV community is watching and tracking every move.
For years, BRC has been trusted to run action alerts like this. Thousands of members and supporters have used this system effectively to defend access to public lands. This isn’t about collecting your info — it’s about building the strongest, most transparent record possible to hold agencies accountable.
