Help Join the Fight to Save Our OHV Trails in the Arizona Strip!
On March 9th, 2022, The BLM Arizona Strip Field Office closed access to 50% of our OHV trails under the proposed Travel Management Plan for the Littlefield Sub-region and Beaver Dam in the Arizona Strip.
Our newly formed Trail Passion Coalition appealed the BLM's decision. We disapprove of the BLM's actions and decisions for trail closures, and we are now waiting for the courts to make a final decision on the issue… See our Appeal document below.

About the Arizona Strip Area
For those unfamiliar with this area on the Arizona Strip – it is a remote and rugged wilderness area that varies in elevation and terrain. This area has no paved roads; most are very primitive and unmaintained. When it rains (or any type of precipitation), it should be anticipated that there could be 8 to 10 inches of the worst mixture of mud and clays that lie in wait to trap a vehicle.
Did we mention there is no cellular service in this area? It is highly recommended to bring plenty of recovery gear (straps and shackles) and have a winch – along with multiple vehicles to help you once the mud has disabled your vehicle. If you are unsuccessful with your recovery gear, ensure you have plenty of food and water (and other supplies necessary to live in your vehicle for some time). Please drive safely and responsibly, and, most importantly, have fun!
