What H.J.Res. 60 does
H.J.Res. 60 is now law and allows off-road vehicles to be used in certain areas of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, in northern Arizona and southeastern Utah, which includes Lake Powell. It does this by cancelling a National Park Service rule published in January 2025 that had limited that use.
The rule had barred off-road vehicles on an 8-mile stretch of the Poison Spring Loop in the Orange Cliffs Special Management Unit, ended the Park Service's authority to open the upper Flint Trail in that unit to them, and limited off-road vehicle use from certain roads to the lake shoreline.
