Williams V. Gubbins is finally drawing to a close. This case concerns the 468 miles of roads and trails that the BLM closed in the San Rafael Swell. The Muddy Creek, Junes Bottom, Segers Hole, and the Purple trail are just a few examples of the access that was lost.


Attorney Curtis Kimble will give oral arguments in favor of our land use rights. It will be important for the judge to see that the OHV community supports this effort. Up to now it's been just briefs and motions. The oral argument phase gives the judge a chance to see the human element of his eventual decision. In addition, Curtis will feel more confident if he has a cadre of support in the gallery.


This will be the final phase in the case which will decided soon after. If we lose, then this flawed and biased travel plan will be set in stone.


YOU are invited to attend the proceedings if at all possible. Let the judge know that there is a large constituency for access in Utah.


LOCATION: Salt Lake Federal Courts Building. Corner of 4th South and Main Street in Salt Lake City.


DATE AND TIME: Wednesday, July 18, at 3 pm.
