Anyone know about the Ruby Horsethief permit deal? As well as a time limit on the daily? It appears that there will be a 3 day limit on the Moab Daily. Really? Is this true?
2nd that request for info on Ruby Horsetheif Permit. Can't seem to find anything about it online. Did they just not get it done last year or just haven't posted the regs yet. Might have missed it though, it is almost 4 in the morning.
There is no permit requirement nor time limit on the Moab Daily. As for Ruby (RH) - if you are camping please self register at Loma for your campsite. The self registration is currently voluntary. As of May 1, 2012 the self registration will be mandatory. There will be no limit or permit requirements Sunday through Thursday however weekend launches will need to obtain a permit for camping. Although the permit system is still in the formative phase it sounds as though you will be able to obtain the weekend RH permit 30 days out. For more information call 970-244-3000.
It makes no sense that the registration is "voluntary", to many times pulled up to spots taken. This should be MANDATORY and strictly enforced with tickets for poaching spots. This would solve the whole issue with no permits. Does anyone there think rationally?
I agree about the problem with voluntary campsite sign up. I have started taking a photo of the sign up sheet just before I launch. When I get to "my" site, if there are people there already, I show them the photo....sometimes they understand and move, sometimes they know enough to say "voluntary" and I have to scratch my head as I head downriver wishing I did not have to take someone eles campsite.
