Crews will keep highways and city streets open throughout the

closed for the season on Tuesday. (Alexis Shultz/NLJ)

December 15, 2015 marks the beginning of winter recreation
on the Black Hills National Forest as Forest officials open
snowmobile, cross country ski and snowshoe trails in the Black
Hills area and close seasonal gates and recreation sites that do not
remain open through the winter across the Forest.
A press release from the BHNF said that gates are closed to
provide a seasonal refuge for wildlife, protect road surfaces and
other resources, and provide for public safety as some of the
roads are converted into part of the snowmobile trail.
"If a barricade or locked gate is in place do not drive around
it," said Scott Jacobson, Public Affairs Officer. "It is out there for
a reason."
Seasonal cidsffre~ "also occur at many of the recreahon sites
including some campgrounds and picnic areas,resttoom
facilities and trash 'collection: are also closed for the seasonl
Even when a gate is open, it does not mean that the road or
trail is passable, according to the release. Many areas and roads
become impassable or hazardous due to ice and snow during the
winter as snow is not plowed or maintained for winter travel on
National Forest roads.
