SPECIAL NOTICE ABOUT THE MORMON BATTALION TRAIL!!!

Many Scouts and Varsity Scouts visit and camp on the Mormon Battalion Trail each year. Due to excessive OHV usage the BLM has closed the area for all entry and camping. There has been an exception made however for Scouts who meet certain conditions. This Informational Flyer provides the detials. Since we are approaching the season when the Scouts will be going out to the trail, it is important follow the rules and don't attempt to just go out on your own, as you have been able to do in the past. If you do use the area without permission, as described in the flyer, you will be subject to some serious fines and could even jeopardize the current arrangement.
