OHV Access to the park would ideally avoid being within close proximity of tribal lands. It is recommended that an OHV corridor follow S River Rd from Duchesne northward to County Rd 195. At that point, OHV users could access the existing roads and trails around the park and could also connect to trails north of the park.

6.2.1.2 Standards Suggestions

For some projects included in this report it will be beneficial to have standard drawings that can be used to determine concept of a specific trail or for planning and funding purposes. These standard drawings could also be used for construction of some trails if conditions allow for this level of design to be implemented.

Suggested standard drawings are included in Appendix A.

6.2.1.3 Coordination and Project Development

6.2.1.3.1 Appoint a centralized trails committee

Currently the Roosevelt Community and Badlands Trails committees are operating independently of each other and of some other user groups. Some of the user groups that have not been represented in these committees include the equestrian users, motorized single track users, Rock Climbers, and Paddle Trail users. While these user groups are smaller and have not been involved in past committee activity, their ideas and priorities are represented in this plan. For this plan to be successful moving forward, it needs to be carried by the user groups in the public to implement the proposed projects and priorities. Ideally, there would be a well-organized and cooperative effort to carry these projects from concept to design and construction, to long-term sustainable trail use and maintenance. In order to do that, each user group needs to be supported by the other users, the landowners/managers, and the community. In order to organize this support and keep the momentum of the plan rolling forward, it is recommended that the county appoint a trails committee that has representation from users and stakeholders including:
