BRC NAMRC Report

We attended the annual North America Motorized Recreational Council on November 3, 2014 in Las Vegas, NV. This meeting was hosted by Del Albright during the SEMA show. Also participating were Greg Griffith and Dave Logan. A wide variety of reports from Blue Ribbon Coalition, NAXJA, California Association of 4WD Clubs, National Off Highway Vehicle Conservation Council (www.nohvcc.org) and a variety of snow mobile and other conservation groups. Of particular interest was some resource information from NOHVCC on land use management practices and maintaining sustainable trails.
