New overlook trail

RANDOLPH, Utah.  January 2, 2019. Mitch Poulsen, Bear Lake Regional Commission, discussed the letter of support for a trail system at the overlook on the Logan Road.  The trail will be about a four mile round trip, non-motorized, single track trail.  The trail uses the existing infrastructure of the rest area which will makes it less expensive than creating a new view trail from the beginning.
The BLRC will go after TRT grants for $80,000 to build the trail.

Poulsen believes that this will give tourist a way to enjoy the area as well as local residents.  The commissioners agreed to sign a letter of support.  Commissioner Sim Weston asked about horses on the trail, Poulson said they probably could make it a horse trail, but it will be up to the forest service to make that decision.

It will include improving the four wheel trails from Garden City to the overlook.
