ATV and UTV Access on the Vilas County Board’s Agenda

One of the items on the Vilas County Board’s meeting agenda on Tuesday are resolutions for two amendments to the County’s Motorized Recreational Trails and Routes ordinance. TheLakelandTimes reports one of the amendments authorizing the use of stretches of county highway in the town of Plum Lake for all terrain vehicle (ATV) and utility task vehicle (UTV) use was submitted by the Plum Lake town board. The other would authorize the use of stretches of county road in Winchester. The main difference is that the second request was made by the town of Preque Isle for the use of county roads in Winchester, to allow for all of highway W to be open to ATVs and UTVs and for a more direct route to Iron County.
