Rampart Range Mangement Meeting Tomorrow (Wednesday)

Colorado Springs, hiking, mountain biking | UltraRob | Tuesday, March 9th, 2010 at 6:08 pm

The 3rd public meeting for the is tomorrow evening (Wednesday, March 10). There’s a summary online of the October meetings. It takes some reading and I still didn’t have a very clear picture of what changes might occur. An article in the Gazette has a summary of possible changes.

There are some new trails proposed for mountain bikers and hikers which would be nice. They would include some good connectors to popular hiking areas. Some roads used by dirt bikes and ATVs would be closed but there would also be some new trails and areas for OHV users.

Overall it sounds pretty good for mountain bikers and hikers but things can change. In other planning meetings in the area, vocal groups have been able to get changes late in the planning at the expense of less vocal groups.

Meeting Details:

Wednesday, March 10, 2010
Workshop from 5:00 PM to 7:30 PM (presentation at 5:30)
Leon Young Service Center (Colorado Springs Utilities)
Pikes Peak Room (2nd floor)
1521 Hancock Expressway
Colorado Springs, Colorado

I would like to be at the meeting but doubt I’ll make it. To keep peace in the household, a home improvement project is currently higher on the priority list.
