Stop Driving on Red Rock article (So. NV)

Post by SinCityBrian » Sun Jan 25, 2009 5:39 pm

Stop Driving on Red Rock - Las Vegas Weekly article
My take on this article is that it's proposing that Red Rock NCA be closed to all motorized traffic ie: Wilderness with a possible future tram so you can sit on your butt in a tram looking out the window and watch yet another closed trail go by. This is not multi access use of our public lands only the most abled-bodied would get to enjoy the area as I do now.

Thanks for the heads up. Making people ride a tram through Red Rock? Just what I want to do when I'm trying to get away from the crowds on the strip. Red Rock has great hiking trails and I look forward to getting out onto Rocky Gap road. I drove up it a little after Christmas but turned around since I had a stock truck in the group and didn't know anything about the difficulty of the road. Next time I'm out there it'd be fun to hit the trail with some locals.
