Check this out when planning your route, closures look minimal but still suck!
http://www.fs.fed.us/r5/sanbernardino/docu...thNewsprint.pdfSome changes to the 50" OHV trails located north of Lake Arrowhead will be made this week.
These projects are a result of the San Bernardino National Forest Travel Management Plan Decision.
At North Shore Work Center, the Administrative trail leading from North Shore Campground Road to 3W12 (now 3W65) is going to be rerouted.
The new Administrative Trail will leave the Work Center and travel east past the sea crates directly out to 2N25. This will allow Volunteer and Staff green sticker access to the forest.
The southeast sections of 3W12 (now 3W65) and 3W13 will be decommissioned by chunking and mounding. There will be boulder barricades placed at the intersections with 2N28Y.
The section of 3W12 (now 3W65) from 2N28Y to 2N75 will be decommissioned and barricaded with boulders.
Looking at the northern sections of 3W12 (now 3W65) and 3W13 there will be two reroutes completed this week.
For 3W13, the reroute will occur above the last pitch of 3W13 that drops onto 3N34 at Willow Creek. This small section (steep hillclimb) will be decommissioned and barricaded. The 3W13 reroute will travel east directly onto 3N34.
The northern intersection of 3W12 (now 3W65) at 3N34 will be decommissioned and ~1/2 of 3W12 will be decommissioned heading west from said intersection. The reroute will connect 3W65 with 3N34.
Sometime in August 2010, the section of 3W12 (by now you should know is 3W65) from 2N75 WNW to 3N31.1 (Old Sewer Pond Road) will be decommissioned. The reroute will start near 3N31.1 and will travel NNE connecting with 3W13.
This is another email.
I went up Cleghorn and I saw the blockades are un-passable ( by Jeep anyway)...
Email reads vvvvvvv
FYI
As you may know, some of the unauthorized routes (bypasses) on Cleghorn have been blocked and slashed with brush. Some of the bypasses that are not blocked will become legal, designated, numbered roads.
This effort is part of the SBNF travel management decision. All of the closures should reflect the final SBNF Motor Vehicle Use Map. The contract restoration crews and equipment are starting this project on the west side of the main divide (I-15) and working east. Finishing east of Big Bear.
The crews are in the Lake Arrowhead area this week. The Contractor is working quickly and efficiently.
If you have any concerns or comments about this project or need any specifics, please contact me.
Hopefully, you were able to attend any of our Travel Management Open House meetings and comment on these projects over the past five years.
