My understanding now is that the BLM presence in Utah (and perhaps everywhere else) has been cut back due to budget restraints compliments of the new administration...

Those pictures were all AWESOME! I hope to be able to join you on that adventure in the near future!
Not like I'm against the BLM or anything, I just don't want them to treat me like I'm some kind of criminal on tax funded "public" land.
It was great meeting you up there as well :yup:
Funny you should ask because I asked the same question to Dynatrac being that it is their axles underneath the rig. Turns out that Dynatrac was able to calculate the proper ratio difference and was able to make it work in 4WD. :yup:

Yes Trump repealed Obama's midnight initiative, the BLM Planning 2.0 initiative. It was only in place a few months and never really had time to be implemented. I don't feel it was good anyways. Too much power given to the state directors and taken from the people if you ask me.
Yeah unfortunately a lot of BLM employees let their personal beliefs and agendas influence decisions that affect the public. If very frustrating to watch at times.
I'm really interested to see what the new Secretary of the Interior has in store.

Eddie & Cindy, Thanks for posting the photos, We were there but didn't get to run into you guys. We saw Mel in Spicy Chicken and M4 in EVO 1 cruse thru downtown one day as we were at the Jeep display and shopping the stores. Maybe next year!

A lot of the locals are on edge over the Bears ears National Monument designation because the activist now feel they have momentum and are trying to get all the trails in Moab shut down to jeeps and the likes.
I've never seen the trail leaders on such edge as to make sure everyone stayed on the designated trails and followed all the rules , which Jeepers have been doing and taking good care of the trails for years.
From what I understand some outfit and I'm not sure if it's the BLM or something with the Department of interior has actually been measuring the width of the trails to determine if Jeeps are making them wider.
last couple of years some environmental group was forcing them to run water trucks to control the dust and then actually had dust collectors on some of the trails so they can measure how much dust was being created.
so tired of all the sky is falling mentality.
I've been going to Moab for at least 40 years and it's always been that dusty, it's a friggin desert!
Environmental activist just want to have everything everything shut down.
I think if it was truly up to them everyone will be looking at pictures of the outdoors and not actually enjoying it.

All of these activists need to be air dropped to the most remote location in our country with no man-made resources, no other people, no roads, and they can have their perfect Utopian environmental orgy all to themselves. The rest of us can enjoy OUR God-given environments around us without the infringement of political tools making us feel guilty for enjoying it the way we want to.

They would all die without all the modern conveniences.
I deal with this type of mentality on a daily bases. Daily I have to deal with people that are extremely rude and upset that we're working and maintaining the power line grid. Inconveniencing their day. But yet they adore the clean reliable power that gets supplied to their home/business.

I totally agree with you...public lands are for public use...and organizations that exist solely through our tax dollars should be more cognizant that they are working for us...

The BLM has been measuring the trails pre and post EJS for years now. If the trail gets too much wider they close it down for a year. Hasn't happened in a few years but within last 5 it has happened. Sad part is you can look at tracks that shoot out off the designated trail and 99% of the time they are dirt bike/sxs tracks which you can easily tell by tire width. Most folks don't do it.
