Temporary closure for BLM’s Winchester Trail for public safety

By Christian Venhuizen

Today, the Bureau of Land Management will temporarily close the Winchester Trail in the Red Cliffs National Conservation Area to provide for public safety while Rocky Mountain Power upgrades its existing power line from Cottonwood Road to the Winchester Hills area. The trail is expected to reopen in early April.

The trail is primarily used by residents for equestrian and hiking recreation and is only open to non-motorized use. The Public Lands Information Center, (435) 688-3200, is available to provide alternative trails and information about a host of opportunities for outdoor recreation on public lands in the area.
