Bishop’s “Grand Bargain” is a Grand Bust

Jan 20th, 2016 Written by Scott Groene

❗IT'S TIME TO ACT❗Share, share, share! Trump ❗IT'S TIME TO ACT❗Share, share, share! 

Trump’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is proposing to greenlight more dirt bikes, side-by-sides and off-road vehicles in Labyrinth Canyon at the request of the State of Utah and certain motorized groups that share a radical vision for public lands—one where landscapes are blanketed in ORV routes, transforming wild places into motorized playgrounds. 

This is happening despite the fact that the BLM finalized a Labyrinth Canyon Travel Management Plan in 2023 that struck a thoughtful and long overdue balance between motorized and non-motorized recreation.

Labyrinth Canyon is too special to meet this fate. Tell the BLM to Keep Labyrinth Canyon Wild! The agency is accepting comments through Friday, October 24, 2025. Please make your voice heard!
