Travel Management - Travel Aids

These travel aids display the same roads, motorized trails, motorized areas, and motorized dispersed camping/motorized big game retrieval corridors as the MVUM but they are in different formats to assist our Forest visitors with navigating around the Santa Fe National Forest or planning their trip to the Forest.

Mobile applications are those you can load on some smart phones, tablets or GPS units.
PC applications are those you can use to view the data and maps on your personal computer.

NOTE: Travel conditions can change due to weather or fire. Designated roads are subject to wet weather or winter road closures, or may be temporarily closed due to seasonal conditions, project related work, emergency activities, or firefighting operations. Roads designated on the MVUMs are available for motorized use as depicted except when posted as being unsuitable for use due to wet conditions or other administrative or public safety needs. Winter weather closures generally occur in higher elevations starting with the first substantial snowfall in December and can last until April.

Please check the Santa Fe National Forest Alerts page for the latest information.
