Rubicon Trail Restrictions (50 feet Right of Way)
By Court Order (due to a lawsuit filed in 2005 against
the USDA Forest Service), all vehicles must remain within
25 feet of centerline of the Rubicon Trail -- a non-maintained
county road.
In other words, the USFS property on both sides of the
Rubicon Trail are temporarily closed to vehicles. You must
keep your vehicle within the county easement (50 feet total).
Signs are up but are not always reliable. FOTR and county Sheriff
personnel try to keep the signage current, but you can't count
on it. You must know where the trail is.
Buy books; use a current map; download GPS
info from reliable souces; follow the signs; and learn
where the real trail is before you go.
Fines range from $175 to $275 or more for violations of the
50 foot easement (25 feet of centerline).
Note: you can camp or walk any where you want; you just can't
take your vehicle outside the easement. This does not apply to
private property such as the Rubicon Soda Springs area.
