PURPOSE AND CONTENTS 4740000 

OF THIS MAP

 The designations shown on this motor vehicle use mapare effective as of the date on the front cover and willremain in effect until superseded by the next year's motorvehicle use map. It is the responsibility of the user toacquire the current MVUM.This map shows the NationalForest System roads, National Forest System trails, andthe areas on National Forest System lands in the MedicineBow National Forest that are designated for motor vehicleuse pursuant to 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)212.51. This map also contains a list of those designatedroads, trails, and areas; the types of vehicles that areallowed on each route and in each area; and any seasonalrestrictions that apply on those routes and in those areas.

 Designation of a road, trail, or area for motor vehicleuse by a particular class of vehicle under 36 CFR 212.51should not be interpreted as encouraging or inviting use orimplying that the road, trail or area is passable, activelymaintained, or safe for travel. Motor vehicle designationsinclude parking along designated routes and at facilitiesassociated with designated routes when it is safe to do soand when not causing damage to National Forest Systemresources. Seasonal weather conditions and naturalevents may render designated routes and trailsimpassable for extended periods. Designated areas maycontain dangerous or impassable terrain. Many designatedroads and trails may be passable only by high-clearancevehicles or four-wheel-drive vehicles. Maintenance ofdesignated roads and trails will depend on availabl

e

resources, and many may receive little maintenance. This motor vehicle use map identifies those roads, trails,and areas designated for the motor vehicle use under 36CFR 212.51 for the purpose of enforcing the prohibition at36 CFR 261.13. This is a limited purpose. The other publicroads are shown for information and navigation purposesonly and are not subject to designation under the ForestService travel management regulation.

 These designations apply only to National Forest

System roads, National Forest System trails, and areason National Forest System lands.
