I saw this posted in another forum and wanted to share here... this is a quote from an email I received. I figure the more that know and respond the better it will be.
CSC4W Members-
It has come to our attention from CORE (Colorado Off Road Enterprise) that the three trails (Metberry Gulch, Longwater Gulch, and Hackett Gulch) known to us as simply "The Gulches", are in danger of being CLOSED. We need to voice our opinion about the potential closure of these trails. The following is a short summary from the CORE website and details what they have found out about this area over the last two years. Please see below:
Land Use Update - The Gulches
What do you know about The Gulches? Are they open, closed, and what is there future? We have seen numerous questions like these over the years and in early 2019 CORE began working on a long-term solution.
Unfortunately, what we discovered was the deliberate and willful attempt to close The Gulches forever. You won’t believe what has happened over the last 18 years!!!
Please read the following summary or watch our video and email the Park County Commissioners, the South Platte and South Park Rangers, the Forest Supervisor and the reps for Doug Lamborn and Cory Gardner. We need your help; we need all our voices to be heard.
1. Get educated. Read the full summary or watch the video. Click HERE to go to the CORE website to read the entire summary. Click HERE to watch the full video about the issue.
2. Draft an email requesting all recipients work together with multiple user groups to ensure multi-use recreation is able to continue on The Gulches Trail System. Ask them to work with CORE and other motorized user groups to find an acceptable management plan. Tell them closure is not management and that they need our help. Tell them how you feel, and why you love to recreate in Park County.
3. Email your comments to:
Park County Commissioners: MBrazell@parkco.us, RDouglas@parkco.us, DElsner@parkco.us
District Rangers: bbanks@fs.fed.us, jvoorhis@fs.fed.us
Forest Supervisor: diana.m.trujillo@usda.gov
Doug Lamborn Rep: Joshua.Hosler@mail.house.gov
Cory Gardner: cory@corygardner.com
CORE: landuse@keeptrailsopen.com
These trails need our help! If you enjoy traveling on these trails, please get involved and do your part to voice your concerns! If enough of us make noise about it, they won't be able to ignore us. Thank you!
