MUSCLE-POWERED PUBLIC LAND USERS BANDING TOGETHER TO WORK FOR RESPONSIBLE LAND STEWARDSHIP AND USE

Welcome to Palisades!

Purpose:
Our primary goal is stewardship of the entire Rimrock/Palisades/Indian Canyon area, including all public lands within the approximate boundaries of Sunset Hwy on the South, Riverside State Park on the North and East, and Airway Heights on the West.

This will include trail planning and maintenance, park advocacy with regard to City Parks issues, involvement with the various agencies assisting in fire management, periodic cleanup activities, and a helpful, watchdog approach to all park users -- i.e. friendly toward non-trashers, non-poachers, non-dealers.

In addition, to assist other user groups in working toward accomplishment of their goals within other areas to enhance muscle-powered use, whether by help with marketing/grant writing/funding or physical help with trail work and building projects.

Finally, to spread the teachings of the "Leave No Trace" Outdoor Ethics program, both within our own area and by reaching out to other user groups to help work toward having clean, sustainable public lands everywhere.

We hope you'll join us.

2006-10-06 - County to Place Trail Crossing Signs on Greenwood Rd
Palisades has been working with the county roads department to place trail signs on Greenwood Road to increase safety for non motorized users of the trails crossing this road.

We just received notice that a sign will be placed by the Green Gate where Trail #101 crosses.
We replied asking for an additional sign to be placed at the trail crossing at the convergence of Rimrock Dr, Basalt, Greenwood and Rimrock Dr South.

Palisades has also requested that the county consider lowering the speed limit on Greenwood Rd and give consideration to some method of traffic control at the above mentioned intersection. We brought our concerns to the attention of Commission Harris has also given attention to our concerns.
