Comment: Several commenters
requested that the NPS designate a
historic route in the Rincon Area
leading to Lake Powell as open to motor
vehicles. These commenters stated that
this route has a precedent of motor
vehicle use and is identified on several
area maps as the only method of
accessing the lake from the Hole in the
Rock trail.

NPS Response: The Rincon Road is
located within a proposed wilderness
area. The Wilderness Act prohibits the
use of motor vehicles in wilderness
areas. 16 U.S.C. 1133(c). The NPS
manages proposed wilderness areas in a
manner that preserves the wilderness
character and will not diminish the
eligibility of such areas for designation.

Dusey Irshim goes through a wilderness area so it isn't without precedent.

can you believe the water level this year was 35 feet below this point at the same time of year?
