DNR announces Reiter area trail closures
In an announcement made on June 16th the Washington State DNR has announced trail closures in the Reiter area including the closure of the Lake Isabel and Index Wall Overlook trails. The DNR with the help of many ORV and off-road groups are working to make Reiter a sanctioned ORV area much like Walker Valley. A map of the closed areas can be obtained from the DNR HERE
Join ORV Trail Watch and help save our trails.
A growing number of off-roaders are tired of the damage being done by a small number of ignorant wheelers that are destroying our public lands and our credibility. BE WARNED, if you are one who thinks mud bogging our trails, cutting trees down to get your rig down a tight trail or vandalizing public facilities is fun then a member of ORV Trail Watch may just be watching and taking your picture to turn over to the authorities.
If you are a responsible off-roader and are tired of seeing this kind of damage then join ORV Trail Watch and commit to helping solve the problem by turning in violators.
Abuse it and loose it!
We have been very vocal here at NWJeepn about being responsible when off-roading because there are many that want to put an end to the past time we love. Now ATVrs in the Liberty Washington area are learning 1st hand what this means. Click here to read the full story recently posted in the Tacoma News Tribune.
