    Welcome on behalf of RME and the U4WDA. Be sure to read all the instructions in "Introductions & using the Forum". U4WDA believes the four wheeling community is best served by: 1. Education thru the use of classes, pamphlets, and films to teach responsible conservation. 2. Use Auto Dealerships...

    Solar Power: Keeping Your Backcountrys Vehicles and Campers Batteries Charged

    At home or in storage a $10 to $15 trickle charger would be easier and cheaper. Most of the solar trickle chargers I have seen are $20 to $100 and 5 or 7 watt at 12 volts which is .4 to .6 amps. Also most of them are carried in a box and attached at camp instead of a permanent mount.

    A look into the future

    There is nothing permanent but change. Which drives me nuts. In 81 years I have had to relearn so many things because they keep making changes and now you have computers that require new software every three years to be able to use something you have used for 20 years. Oh, and the glass thing...

    BLM RAC appointment

    I understand your pain. They met 4 times in 2011 and 2 times in 2010. They are supposed to meet quarterly per their posting. Please give it a try as we only have one ally, Frank White, there now. This is a posting of some info I did recently: I talked to Sherry Foot at the BLM today and...

    BLM RAC appointment

    We need to get someone on the RAC. Is there a RME person out there that would apply? I will try again this year so I need as many letters as possible to add to my nomination package. Would appreciate one from RME. If you need help as to what to say I can post up some examples. The only other...

    Coyote Canyon - WE WON (sort of...)

    I did not see my name or U4WDA and I went by the office as well as sending an email. This was the post about the visit to the office, maybe too late. I have been having a good family trip to Moab and used the opertunity to visit some people. I visited the BLM office and had a long talk with...

    Booo! on Garfield County - "Deal aimed at paving famous Burr Trail switchbacks"

    I agree and think your reading 4x4 only into some of my statements that was unintended by me. It is the old saying, We hang together or we will surely be hanged separately. There are places that are suitable for only one user group and places that two or more could use. Unlike the hikers that...

    Booo! on Garfield County - "Deal aimed at paving famous Burr Trail switchbacks"

    What you say is true. The Wilderness Society and SUWA did not like it also. This would only be used in so called Wilderness areas and would not affect what is already out there. You know that almost all single track roads follow old two track and horse trails and that would not change. Again...

    If a 4x4 will fit on the trail all the others would fit as well. I do not think there should be single use trails in this instance. There are quite a few of them out there allready. This would be trails that everyone could use within the specified area.

    Booo! on Garfield County - "Deal aimed at paving famous Burr Trail switchbacks"

    It of course would have to be defined to suite our needs. The basic idea would be to do away with all wilderness and have defined routes of travel in specific areas and you would have to stay on these routes. (sound familiar) Think of it as what we have now and everyone follows the law and the...

    Booo! on Garfield County - "Deal aimed at paving famous Burr Trail switchbacks"

    Where are you going to go??? I left California and came here partly because Utah was the last frontier of four wheeling. As I said in a precious post just look at Europe if you want to see the future. What we need is wilderness that allows motorized access.

    Safety's a thing of the past? Did you guys see this yesterday?

    Bottom line you all need to remember that fees are just another way of saying hidden taxes.
