The Coconino National Forest is seeking public input on the Red Rock Trails Enhancement Project.
This project on the Red Rock Ranger District would add more than 34 miles of non-motorized Forest Service system trails--constructing 17 miles of trail and adopting 17 miles of user-created routes into the official trail system—while also re-routing and naturalizing other segments of trails at specific locations within the district.
The public is invited to provide input during the comment period from March 16 through April 15, 2018, regarding the project’s proposed action. Comments can be submitted in writing through one of the following methods:
- via email to comments-southwestern-coconino-redrock@fs.fed.us (include "Redrock Trails Enhancement" in the subject line);
- via mail to Red Rock Ranger District, Attention: Red Rock Trails Enhancement, PO Box 20429 Sedona, AZ 86341;
- via facsimile to (928) 203-7539; or
- in person at the Red Rock Ranger District Office, 8375 State Route 179, Sedona, AZ 86351.
You can view the proposed action, including a vicinity and three detailed maps, on the Forest Service’s project website: https://tinyurl.com/RedRockTrails.
