Hey does this mean all the OHV trails in wiprious are closed or just the "winter trails" as you can tell I haven't been out since I was taken out last summer now that my XJ is 90% done I was planning on hitting a couple trails this week! 

Thanks

Grab a map for the area, it will show you which trails are the winter trails.

You could try calling SRD I guess...    I might be able to scan the area that is open and post it....    

And the winter trials that are closed for trucks only... those same trails are still open as quad trails.

It looks like SRD has broken the map into multiple pages.  You can find it here:   http://srd.alberta.ca/RecreationPublicUse/RecreationOnPublicLand/PublicLandUseZones/documents/Ghost-PLUZBrochureMap-May11-2012.pdf

The attachment is off of Page 16 I believe.

What's open -  The purple lines
51 to 89
89 to 127 ( 127 it known as Four Corners)
120 to 127
127 - 131 and 135 (found on page 15  - That is the falls)

What's not open
93 to 89 - The bridge is being washed out and the trail is closed for now.
All the Green Starred trails - those are the winter ones
127-143 and beyond
139 - 143 and 140 to 165 and beyond.

If it's muddy, please try not to rip it up to bad.  Stay on the trails and have some fun!
