For those that were following the Greater Canyonlands park expansion around Moab, it did go ahead but the name changed to Bears Ear Monument...

Obama signed it in as he was heading out the door. For those that go to Moab to wheel, overall it isn't too big of a deal insofar as trail access is concerned. It only affected a small portion of the trails in the area, and most of those are scenic "green" trails.
However for those that go to camp or overland, you've been given another Obama-enema. Tons of great overlanding and camping areas just went bye bye. For those that went last year, consider yourselves lucky as our camping spot is now officially off limits. That was the last run on that trail, and the last campfire at our campsite.
Maybe offroading can become " great again " soon.. :)
Certainly hope so.
