FYI. I got this from the DNR. There is a link to the draft master plan for the Sauk Prairie Recreation Area (formerly the Badger Ammo Plant) north of Sauk City and south of the Baraboo Bluffs along Highway 12.
There was a tremendous amount of pressure to allow access for ATVS and other 3-season motorized vehicles (off-road motorcycles, 4WD trucks, and such.) It looks like the master plan proposes to allow dual-sport motorcycles to use some trails 6 days out of the year and not allow ATVs at all. This will be a relief to those who were looking forward to more quiet and slower uses in the area. Also, many neighbors and local folks who have worked very hard on a re-use plan for this area will be relieved. Comments are being accepted until Sept 25. See below for more details.
