Arizona’s off-road community faces a pivotal moment. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is reevaluating over 1,250 miles of trails, and they’re asking for our input. This isn’t just a call to action; it’s a call to arms for everyone who values the dirt under their tires and the freedom of the open trail. Here’s how we can make an impact together.
Speak Up: Your Comments Count
Our trails’ future hangs in the balance, and your voice is the key to tipping the scales. Every comment submitted to the BLM is a vote for keeping our trails accessible, safe, and sustainable. It’s not just about saying “keep it open”; it’s about sharing why these trails matter. Whether it’s a tale of family bonding, a testament to the beauty of Arizona’s landscapes, or how off-roading has touched your life, your stories paint the picture of why these trails are invaluable.
Making Your Comment Heard
Check out this guide on crafting effective comments that resonate with the BLM. This isn’t about flooding their inbox with demands; it’s about constructive, heartfelt feedback that underscores the importance of our trails. Whether it’s highlighting an area’s natural beauty, its significance to the off-roading community, or specific concerns about trail maintenance, your insights can guide the BLM’s decisions.
The Impact: Beyond the Trails
This is about more than just keeping our playground open; it’s about ensuring that off-roading continues to be a vibrant part of Arizona’s outdoor culture. By participating, we’re not only advocating for our trails but also for the principles of conservation, responsible recreation, and community engagement. It’s a chance to show that off-roaders are committed to preserving the land we love for future generations.
