Gunnison County commissioners on Tuesday passed a resolution authorizing the continued use of both all-terrain and off-highway vehicles on a segment of road approaching Lead King Loop, while reaffirming the importance of a multilateral process building toward a permit or reservation system that would limit motorized recreation in the backcountry near the town of Marble.
While the commissioners did not enact a de facto moratorium on OHV, ATV and UTV traffic on the 1.5-mile segment of county road leading to the popular loop on Forest Service land — as some area residents were hoping — the discovery three weeks ago of a language error in a county resolution governing the road served to elevate the issue, according to a woman who has been advocating for better management of surging motorized traffic on Lead King Loop.
