Contact: Heather Noel Tel: 928-527-3490 Coconino National Forest to issue revised Motor Vehicle Use Maps Flagstaff, AZ –
On April 15, the Coconino National Forest issued a revised, free Motor Vehicle Use Map to show all roads, trails and areas open to motor vehicle use on the Forest. The Motor Vehicle Use Map is re-issued
each year, is free to the public, and can be downloaded for use on smartphones, tablets and Garmin GPS devices. Copies of the Motor Vehicle Use Map are also available at Coconino National Forest Offices,
nearby national forest offices, and other local businesses. In addition to hard copy maps, forest visitors can also get a free Coconino National Forest Travel Map, an electronic color map with shaded relief topography, game
management units, hiking trails, and all designated motorized routes and areas. When using this map with the Avenza PDF Maps App, this map is GPS-active, meaning you can see where you are on the map as you drive or hike on the national forest. Instructions
for how to get the free map and app on your mobile device can be found at
http://go.usa.gov/PEa (case sensitive). The 2014 Motor Vehicle Use Map includes a number of updates and corrections made as a result of public input received over the past year. More substantive route changes
requested by the public will need to be reviewed through the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. The forest expects to propose changes to the system of designated motor vehicle routes and areas in late 2014 to begin the NEPA process.
If you discover errors on the 2014 Motorized Vehicle Use Map, notice problems with road signs on the Coconino National Forest, or have any general comments about motorized
use policies or designations, please visit the website and complete the “Feedback” form, at
http://go.usa.gov/Qww. For additional information, please contact the Coconino National Forest at 928-527-3600. ### Respectfully, Heather ************************************** Heather M.
