PURPOSE AND CONTENTSOF THIS MAP

Designation of a road, trail, or area for motor vehicle useby a particular class of vehicle under 36 CFR 212.51 shouldnot be interpreted as encouraging or inviting use, or implyingthat the road, trail or area is passable, actively maintained, orsafe for travel. Motor vehicle designations include parkingalong designated routes and at facilities associated withdesignated routes when it is safe to do so and when notcausing damage to National Forest System resources.Seasonal weather conditions and natural events may renderdesignated routes and trails impassable for extended periods.Designated areas may contain dangerous or impassableterrain. Many designated roads and trails may be passableonly by high-clearance vehicles or four-wheel drive vehicles.Maintenance of designated roads and trails will depend onavailable resources, and many may receive littlemaintenance. This motor vehicle use map identifies those roads, trailsand areas designated for the motor vehicle use under 36 CFR212.51 for the purpose of enforcing the prohibition at 36 CFR261.13. This is a limited purpose. The other public roads areshown for information and navigation purposes only, and arenot subject to designation under the Forest Service travelmanagement regulation. These designations apply only to National ForestSystem roads, National Forest System trails and areason National Forest System lands.
