Fremont-Winema National Forests Motorized Travel Management Plan
The Fremont-Winema National Forest has completed its Motorized Travel Management Project Environmental Assessment (EA) and the Decision Notice on July 8, 2010. The decision applies to all National Forest System lands managed by the Forest.The Decision represents a blend between the public’s desire for adding currently closed roads as motorized trails and closing specific open roads to motor vehicle use based on public, other agency, comments and resource protection needs. Approximately 6,600 miles of roads and trails will be designated for motorized use. Motorized access for dispersed camping would be allowed within 300 feet on one or both sides of a portion of designated roads; however access would be confined to existing routes to existing campsites. Cross-country motorized travel will be prohibited other than for some limited exceptions.
