Grand County Non -Motorized Trails Master Plan
(GCNTMP)
www . grandcountvutah.net/plaruling.htm
March 5, 2008
introduction
An integrated and environmentally sound network of trails for non -motorized use is viiai to the future well
being of Grand County and its communities. Trails help to tie a community together in both a physical and
a cultural sense while offering outdoor opportunities for residents and the many visitors upon which much
of today's economy is based.
The Grand County Trail Mix committee created the GCNTMP and has the responsibility for continuing its
development Trail Mix, primarily funded by Grand County, is comprised of volunteer trail advocates, a
paid trail coordinator and trail specialist, and representatives from local government and land agencies. It is
at the monthly Trail Mix meetings that non -motorized trail issues are discussed, priorities are set, and work
is scheduled. The most important private organization involved in Trail Mix is the Moab Trails Alliance
(MTA). MTA is a 501(c) 3 non-profit which is funded by local businesses and private donors. MTA has
written numerous grant proposals on behalf of Trail Mix and Grand County and has raised money used to
match grants for trail development.
The Vision
To develop a fully integrated network of environmentally sustainable
trails for non -motorized use that will link the Moab Valley to other areas
in Grand County. A trail system permits residents and visitors to travel
safely throughout the county on foot, bicycle, or horseback while they
commute to work or school or enjoy the many outdoor recreational
opportunities the county has to offer.
The Mission
To preserve and develop the individual trails that are growing into a non -
motorized, integrated trail network providing safe, convenient, enjoyable
recreation and transportation experiences for all trail users throughout Grand
County.

The Guiding Principles
To perform the mission in an orderly and consistent manner a set of guidelines is needed. The following
principles have been identified.
Trails are vital to the responsible use of the county's natural resources
■ Education of trail users is an essential element in resource protection.
■ A planned trail system minimizes damage to the environment.
Trails are important to livable neighborhoods and a vibrant business community
■ Trails provide an alternative to motorized roadways.
■ Trails safely connect schools, neighborhoods, businesses, parks and public lands.
■ Trails promote health, recreation and increase the quality of life.
Trails must be viewed as part of a total, integrated transportation system
■ )integrating existing and new trails to form a comprehensive trail system can
minimize environmental disruption.
■ Private and public sectors must work together to minimize trespassing and promote
respect for public and private property.
Trails must be properly designed to achieve a successful trail system
■ Trail design must consider multiple user groups such as cyclists, hikers and
equestrians, and minimize conflicts between different trail users.
■ Proper design emphasizes safety, which includes physical characteristics such as
grades, widths, sight distances and vertical clearance.
■ Proper design minimizes the effects on wildlife and the environment.
■ Well -planned and signed trailhead and access points are critical to an effective trail
system.
The entire trail system must be properly maintained to keep it viable
■ Maintenance must involve the users to promote ownership of the trail system.
■ Maintenance includes improving drainage, minimizing erosion, rerouting when
necessary, and keeping trails free of inappropriate debris.
■ A non -maintained trail system is worse than no trail system at all.
The Challenges
This Trail Plan was developed to meet significant challenges that face the use of trails in Grand County.
Some key challenges addressed are:
■ Create connectivity for an easily navigated regional trail system.
■ As visitation increases, shared use has created crowding and conflicts. Historical routes were
mostly created for mineral exploration and never designed for the current types of use.
■ Moab has developed the reputation as a cycling destination, but that status is in jeopardy because
of the lack of new trail development and limited non -motorized routes.
■ Connect the Spanish Trail Arena, one of the finest equestrian centers anywhere in the Four
Corners area, to public lands.
■ Establish a viable organizational structure for the maintenance of the trail network.
■ Educate private property owners about the value of a trail network.
The plan proposes an easily navigable, logically connected network of trails that would spread trail use
throughout Grand County. This includes shared access where appropriate.
Background
Grand County is in southeastern Utah encompassing an area of about 3694 square miles with a population
of about 9000 residents. It is the heart of canyon country with its spectacular rock formations, miles of
canyons, the Colorado River, and many mesas. Moab is the county seat with 4500 residents followed by
Castle Valley with 500 and Thompson with 100.
Since its settling in the late 1880's, Moab grew into a booming mining town peaking in the I950's when
the uranium market opened up. Every inch of this remote desert region was explored by any means possible
from foot to seismic truck and much of the trail network today is the result of those labors. Since the late
1980's, Grand County's economy has come to rely on the recreation industry, in which non -motorized
trails play a vital role. Non -motorized trails also help make the county a safe and enjoyable place to live
and visit. These trails connect neighborhoods, schools, businesses and recreation areas and provide access
to the county's abundant public lands,
Because local government recognizes the value of the non -motorized visitor, Trail Mix, the non -motorized
advisory committee to the County Council was established in 2000 to address not only the needs of the
non -motorized community, but to enhance the quality of life for all Grand County residents.
The Grand County Non -motorized Trails Master Plan (GCNTMP)
The GCNTMP catalogs the county's existing trail system and identifies strategic additions and
improvements to promote safety and reduce conflicts, to better connect schools, neighborhoods and
businesses, and to encourage outdoor activities. It is based on an evaluation of the current trails and an
estimation of future needs.
The plan emphasizes the need to respect the rights of private property owners while taking into account the
legitimate public need for safe trails and access to public Iands. The plan is envisioned to be a living
document that will keep pace with current and future trail needs. It will be updated periodically to reflect a
growing, vibrant community's needs and environmental conditions.
Trail Plan Purposes
The GCNTMP provides a blueprint for an integrated trail system that will meet the future needs of County
residents and visitors by encouraging responsible use, making trails an integral part of the community,
preserving access to public lands, accommodating a variety of users, designing environmentally sound new
trails, and maintaining existing trails.
Trail Plan Scope
The plan encompasses the trails, approved and pending, that together form the Grand County non -
motorized trail system. Because of proximity, certain trails that extend into adjacent areas of San Juan
County are also included. With the exception of minor route re -designations, it takes no position on the
many other motorized routes and trails that are available to the motorized trail users.
Trail Plan Development Process
Trail Mix developed the trail plan over a multi -year period by meeting with the Grand County Council, the
general public, and numerous other agencies and organizations. The GCNTMP is meant to be a living
document that will be scrutinized and amended periodically to reflect the needs of the community.
Trail Regions
The Grand County area has been divided into 12 regions and one high priority recreation area. The sub-
regions are briefly described and their major trails identified in the following paragraphs. Appendix B
provides a listing of trails, their status (Approved or Pending), and user groups. Appendix C provides maps
that show the geographic extent of each sub -region, the priority recreation area, and detailed maps of Moab
and Spanish Valley.

Trail Definitions
■ Paths (Pathways)
These are non -motorized routes in high -traffic areas: urban or suburban. They are wide enough
(48-72 inches) for users to pass each other with ease and open to all non -motorized traffic unless
otherwise posted. Pathways typically are:
o Paved — paths surfaced with asphalt or concrete separated from roadways.
o Natural Surface - paths surfaced with materials such as wood chips, gravel, or road base
(anything other than asphalt or concrete).
• Single-track
A single-track trail requires users to travel in single file. The bed of a single-track trail is typically
a natural surface and 12 to 18 inches wide.
Single -tracks are widened when users travel on adjacent vegetation therefore it is important for all
users to stay on the trail. Trail -user groups, outfitters, and posted signs educate users abour proper
trail etiquette. There are three types of singIe-track:
❑ Motorcycle - some single-track trails open and legal for motorcycle use are popular with
non -motorized trail users. All non -motorized users are permitted on motorcycle single-
track.
o Non -Motorized - single-track open to non -motorized users: bicycle, horse, and foot
traffic.
o Hiking and Equestrian - single-track open generally to both horse and foot traffic.
Proposed single-track - as defined in this plan - refers to trails proposed to Moab City, Grand
County, BLM, State Trust Lands, or the U.S. Forest Service for development. Some proposals
pertain to existing user -created trails that are not currently designated routes while other proposals
pertain to the construction of new trails or pathways.
• Roads
The State of Utah has adopted 4 1-6a-706.5, which states "Operation of motor vehicle near
bicycle prohibited. An operator of a motor vehicle may not knowingly, intentionally, or
recklessly operate a motor vehicle within three feet of a moving bicycle, unless the operator
of the motor vehicle operates the motor vehicle within a reasonable and safe distance of the
bicycle."
The Grand County Transportation Inventory shows both paved and unpaved roads within the
county. For the non -motorized user groups, the following categories are used in the GCNTMP
o Shared Routes (Share the Road)
Roads with signage directing bicycle, horse, or foot traffic, allowing non- motorized
users to connect geographically dispersed towns, trailheads, and recreation areas.
Shared routes do not prohibit vehicles, but make non -motorized travel on roadways
convenient and safe and alert vehicles to their presence. The KokopeIli Trail is an
example of a shared route
o Bike Lanes
Painted and signed bicycle routes on paved roads adjacent to vehicle lanes.
❑ Re -designation of Roads
Where appropriate, with the approval of land managers and the County, a road may
be changed from motorized to non -motorized as illustrated in the Oki Highway
section from the Bar M area heading south to the Arches National Park pathway
through Moab Canyon.

Trail Standards
A large number of organizations have developed standards for trail development. Government agencies
have standards that apply to their areas of responsibility. Standards developed by the International
Mountain Biking Association and ASSHTO (American Association of State Highway and Transportation
Officials) will be used in future trail development.
Trail Users
While the non -motorized users of the trails in Grand County are diverse, they can be grouped into the
categories of hikers, cyclists, equestrians, and XC skiers. Each group has its own view of what constitutes
a `trail experience'. In some cases this creates conflicts, some of which can be resolved by designating
certain trails for a specific user group, or building new trails for a specific user group. Taking multi -use
trails and limiting their use to one group is not a preferred approach. As in any case where limited
resources must be shared, cooperation and tolerance among groups is key to future success.
• Hikers and Pedestrians
Grand County offers not only some of the most unique vistas in the world but also affords the visitor
and resident the opportunity to get `up close and personal' with the environment. The difficulty of
hiking trails ranges from easy to extremely challenging. The hiking environment ranges from desert,
to canyon, to mountaintop.
A hiker's trail experience typically includes a desire for solitude and time to reflect on the environment
as well as a chance and challenge for exercise. Hikers like trails that get away from the urban setting.
While hikers are not typically restricted to staying on trails, cross-country travel adds extra
environmental impact. New trail construction will be signed "Stay on the Trail" and "braided" trails
will be closed off.
A pedestrian's experience typically includes a desire for exercise or to get from one place to another
without dealing with traffic. Pedestrians require a network of in -city and county trails that offer access
to businesses, schools, and public Iands.
• Cyclists
Grand County has some of the most diverse cycling opportunities in the nation. Both mountain and
road cyclists have an abundance of trails and pathways available, ranging from easy to the most
difficult. The availability of all these options offers both residents and visitors many opportunities for
fitness, sightseeing and enjoying some of nature's greatest wonders.
A mountain biker's trail experience typically includes the desire for solitude and to explore new areas
while challenging one's ability. A road cyclist desires well kept roads, minimal and respectful vehicles,
and safe routes while covering a significant number of miles at a fair pace.
Cyclists contribute to the local economy and quality of life through participation in local events such as
the 24 Hours of Moab, Skinny Tire Festival, Moab Fat Tire Festival, Moab Century and a host of other
races and recreational rides.
• Equestrians
The equestrian community has designed a trail system that will link the Spanish Trail Arena to the
outlying destinations of Ken's Lake, Johnson's Up -On -Top and Mill Creek. They require routes free
from unexpected surprises.
• Cross -Country Skiers
The Lower Utah Nordic Alliance (LUNA) was established in December 2006. Through the Forest
Service and with volunteers, X-Country ski tracks are set in the La Sal Mountains throughout the
winter.
c
Recommendations
While this plan presents components necessary to achieve the vision of the GCNTMP, it would not be
complete without specific recommendations that must be accomplished if the process is to remain on track
and produce successful results throughout the coming years.
1. Involve Local Government
The residents of Grand County and the City of Moab will be the immediate beneficiaries of the
implementation of this plan. Therefore, the County and City need to be intimately involved with its
implementation through planning, development and maintenance.
2. Grow and Maintain Partnerships
Successful projects are a testimony to the healthy interactive partnerships that exist and provide a firm
foundation for the implementation of this plan. Therefore, one very important task in the implementation
of this plan is the `care and feeding' of the partnerships that have been established and the forging of new
partnerships with other groups and organizations that have an interest in non -motorized trails. See
Appendix A for a complete partners list,
3. Actively Coordinate
This plan addresses a long-term vision that includes the expansion and maintenance of a large and
integrated trail system and therefore an equally long-term coordination effort is required. The plan
recommends that the County consider creating a Trails Coordinator position or incorporating such a
position into the transportation, recreation, or planning department. The function of this position would be
to implement the goals of this plan by working with the Trail Mix Committee, City and County officials fk
land managers to further the goals of an integrated non -motorized transportation system in Grand County.
4. Establish Easements
The efforts of the City of Moab to expand trails, paths and bike lanes within the City and extend them to
out -lying area trails are an integral part of making this plan a success. In addition, the City and County
efforts to encourage the development of trails and pathways within and through subdivisions and Planned
Unit Developments (PUDs), including the Moab Area Partnership for Seniors (MAPS), are a high priority.
In those cases where easements and other access methods will be required, support from the City and
County is critical.
5. Periodic Updates
This plan is a living document and is subject to change and revision. The non -motorized trails matrix and
maps will be updated periodically to identify changes or additions. These changes and additions will be
considered an amendment to the Trails Master Plan. The updated version, once approved by the County
will be available on the County Planning and Engineering webpage.

APPENDIX B -- NON -MOTORIZED TRAILS MATRIX
TRAIL NAMES are listed alphabetically.
Examples of types of trails:
■ Existing trail that has received approval for non -motorized use by the land owner/manager.
"Approved Trail"
• New trail suggested where none exists on the ground- Trail Mix will propose the trail to the land
manager and work through the process to obtain approval.
■ Existing route on the ground that has not received approval for non -motorized use by the !and
owner/manager. Trial Mix will propose the trail to the land manager and work through the process to
obtain approval.
■ Commuter trail - often a paved path that would promote connectivity within Spanish Valley or
Moab City. The trail may be a stand alone pathway or a marked lane on an existing roadway. Many
routes are identified in the Spanish Valley Transportation Plan. Trail Mix works towards planning
and implementation of marked routes and future pathways.
■ Roads and streets and single track routes that are designated by the land managers to be open to
motorized use are often shared with non -motorized users. Since this is the non -motorized plan, we
are not always aware of the latest status of trails used by motorized vehicles. The ultimate authority
on trail use is the land manager, whether it is National Parks, BLM, Forest Service, State Parks, or
other state lands- Trail Mix will work with the land managers and Grand County Road Department
and motorized user groups in planning routes and to insure appropriate signage when a route is
shared.
PRIMARY NON -MOTORIZED USER This heading is a tool to identify which non -motorized user
predominately uses each trail. This could change with time.
MAPS are separated into regions within the County.
LENGTH in miles refers to distances drawn on the map, not the round trip distance for users,
NON -MOTORIZED USERS These columns identify typical non -motorized users of the trail. These
include Bike, Hike, Pedestrian, Equestrian, Ski.
SHARED WITH MOTORIZED USERS indicates non -motorized users may encounter motor vehicles.
Administrative use of motorized vehicles are permitted on non -motorized routes.
LAND OWNER/MANAGER includes private owners or government agencies.
STATUSA - Approval has been obtained from the land owner/manager.
P -- Pending action means that a trail has been suggested for inclusion in the non -motorized trails master
plan and is in the process of working towards approval.
Pending actions might include:
■ Proposal of trail plan to land owner/manager
• Negotiations and route placement with land owner/manager
■ Funding being sought
■ Trail building and signing
COMMENTS Action needed or other specific trail information may be noted in this column.

APPENDIX C - MAPS
Trails that have been approved for use are shown with a solid red line. Trails that are pending action are
dashed yellow on red.
The pending trails drawn on the following maps represent a suggested route. Working with land
owner/managers a final route will be negotiated.
The trails shown on the Moab City I, Moab City 2, Spanish Valley 1, and Spanish Valley 2 maps represent
trail interconnectivity for the valley. They are not meant to show the precise location on the ground. As a
property is developed the proposed trails shown crossing that property may be rerouted to better fit the
development plan, provided that the same or greater level of interconnectivity with adjacent properties is
achieved. The trails on these maps are intended as a valley -wide system.
