In Memoriam

Perhaps you have run across some of these folks at the trailheads or trail ends very early or very late in the day. You may have been out on your own or signed up on a Safari trail and passed them on your way into the trail. Even though some of them have rabbit ears they are not to be confused with the Easter Bunny, they are Trail Monitors. They are just trying to help limit damage to trails and perhaps make the day a little more fun and easier on everyone. Have you ever heard the saying “If you’re not with us, you’re against us.” – We don’t believe that, we are all out here to enjoy this beautiful country and the myriad of trails and adventures it off ers. But, everyone has a duty to themselves and to others to share the responsibility of not widening existing trails, not making new trails, not running off of existing ones and lessening damage to the countryside whenever possible.

We hope your children and grandchildren will be able to enjoy the land as it was when you fi rst saw it. Have you ever thought what an easy job it is to get people to go on trails they want to go on? It’s quite a diff erent story when you are trying to keep people off the trails they want to go on – it’s really a challenge. Almost every jeeper who our Trail Monitors have encountered have been very understanding. It really has made our job easier. Thanks to all of you!

We’ll be there again this year and more than likely from now on. The Club has tried to leave days open for you to enjoy during Safari and the Monitors will have a list of alternates you can use for the day. Please note the Exclusive Use and One Way trails section on page 156-160. Exclusive Use trails include spin-off trails, such as Where Eagles Dare, off the beginning of Gold Bar or the end of Golden Spike. These trails will be closed on the days that we have scheduled the use of the trail until that trail has exited.
