JD sits down with Loren Campbell of the Utah Public Lands Alliance (UPLA) to talk about Moab trail reopenings. They break down the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) new Travel Management reconsideration and explain how off-roaders can submit effective comments about getting back in the 317 miles of Moab we lost. The pair also cover the proposed Outdoor Americans with Disabilities Act, the power of calling your senators, and practical tips for writing persuasive, trail-saving feedback.
